CHICAGO (AP) - A police officer has been arrested in the off-duty beating of a 15-year-old high school student, the Chicago Police Department said Sunday.
Robert Gallegos, who is charged with aggravated battery, appeared on closed-circuit television Sunday afternoon in a Cook County courtroom, where a judge set bond at $100,000.
The officer, who was assigned to the department's mass transit unit, was arrested on Saturday, four days after the Juarez High School student suffered a broken jaw and other injuries in the attack, according to a police statement.
