A Fort Worth Police Department corporal was arrested on May 25 for allegedly assaulting a family member.
Officers responded to a domestic disturbance call involving Corporal Mark Force, a seven-year veteran.
Fort Worth PD issued a statement about the incident, which confirmed Force is “currently on restricted duty and stripped of all police powers” and that a thorough investigation would be conducted.
The statement continued, “The Fort Worth Police Department holds its officers to a high standard both on and off-duty, and does not tolerate criminal misconduct or unethical behavior.”
Few details are available, but jail records indicate that the officer is accused of choking someone. Force was released from custody the same day he was arrested.
