SACRAMENTO, CA - A Sacramento police officer has been arrested on suspicion of domestic violence.
According to Galt police, Officer Bryan David Weinrich of the Sacramento Police Department was arrested in Roseville Friday morning after a woman reported to Galt police that she had been physically assaulted and that Weinrich had brandished a handgun.
The initial incident occured Wednesday night, according to Galt police Lt. Jim Uptegrove. He said Weinrich and the woman had an argument that turned physical when Weinrich reportedly assaulted the victim several times.
Weinrich then left the Roseville residence but then returned Thursday morning and he and the woman drove to Roseville, Uptegrove said.
According to Uptegrove, another altercation took place during the car ride where the victim stated she was held against her will when she tried to exit the vehicle.
The pair returned to the victim's residence where she called police. The woman did not require medical attention, Uptegrove said.
Once the report was taken in Galt, Roseville police officers went to Weinrich's residence and took him into custody without incident early Friday morning, according to Uptegrove.
Weinrich was booked into the Sacramento County Jail for corporal injury to a spouse or co-habitant, brandishing a weapon, kidnapping and false imprisonment.
Weinrich has been put on paid administrative leave, said Sacramento police spokesman Sgt. Norm Leong.
