As per a police report accessed by the ABC7 I-Team, the woman informed police she was awaiting a rideshare when the off-duty officer, accompanied by another woman, approached her. He is accused of demanding that she remove videos from her phone before both allegedly assaulted her.

The victim was taken to a nearby hospital for injuries.

The officer is already on paid leave for the shooting earlier this year that killed Officer Rivera.
