Officer David Call Charged with Aggravated Battery

An Apopka police commander faces aggravated battery charges for allegedly punching a woman and her brother while off-duty at a bar.

Authorities said Tuesday 41-year-old David Call turned himself in. The 17-year police veteran has been suspended with pay in connection with the February incident.

Robert Henns, of Eustis, suffered broken ribs. He told police he was restrained by one man while another punched him.

Apopka police say Call has no record of discipline on file. The department is delaying its internal investigation until the criminal case is resolved.
