CLOVIS, N.M.
A Clovis police officer is on paid administrative leave after being charged with one count of domestic battery.
Johnny Zamora, 26, was arrested Sunday after a police department supervisor learned that Zamora had been involved in a domestic dispute with his wife while he was off duty. Jail officials say Zamora was released Monday on his own recognizance.
Zamora will remain on leave for the duration of the criminal case, said Clovis police Capt. Patrick Whitney.
The department said in a news release that all cases of alleged domestic violence are taken very seriously and thoroughly investigated and that the appropriate action is taken regardless of the people involved.
Zamora has been with the department since April 2006 and is a patrol officer.
