UPDATE: Officer Christopher Paciorkowski Arrested for Domestic Battery

ELKHART

An Elkhart police officer accused of domestic battery is being placed on administrative leave without pay.

Christopher Paciorkowski was arrested on June 25 for felony domestic battery after his fiancée told police he pushed her. Paciorkowski is also accused of interfering with reporting a crime.

The Elkhart Safety Board decided Tuesday morning to stop paying Paciorkowski until the case against him is resolved.

If convicted, Packorkowski would not be able to carry a firearm so he could not be a police officer. Paciorkowski is a five-year veteran of the department.
