Hamilton police say an 11-year member of the force is facing charges following a domestic assault investigation.
Police said the incident occurred while the officer was off-duty on Monday.
The 34-year-old has been suspended with pay after being charged with assault and criminal harassment.
Police are not naming the officer out of concern it could identify the alleged victim. The accused is expected in court on Feb. 23.
