SAN ANTONIO — A 25-year-old Bexar County Sheriff’s corporal was arrested for domestic violence, BCSO said.
Leroy Martinez was arrested around 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday by the BCSO Fugitive Apprehension Unit and Homicide Unit.
"Martinez was arrested for domestic violence for an incident that stemmed from this past weekend where he is accused of choking a female victim, restricting her airway," authorities said.
Martinez has been with BCSO for four years and is assigned to the Detention Bureau. He has been served termination paperwork and is on unpaid administrative leave.
BCSO also said a "separate but concurrent administrative investigation is underway, pending the outcome of the criminal case that is being handled by the San Antonio Police Department."
