Injuries to a 5-year-old have led to a Shreveport police officer turning himself in on a warrant charging him with one count of domestic abuse battery.
Cpl. Michael Harvey was identified as a suspect Sept. 17, a day after an educator complained about suspicious injuries to the child, Police Chief Henry Whitehorn Jr. said.
Details about the injuries to the child and the child's relationship to Harvey were not immediately available.
Harvey was placed on administrative leave and a warrant for his arrest, with bond set at $10,000, was signed Oct. 1 after the Caddo district attorney's office reviewed an initial investigation.
Harvey, a 13-year veteran of the Shreveport Police Department, will remain on leave pending an internal investigation, Whitehorn said.
