A Seattle police officer is being investigated for allegedly assaulting another person during a bar fight in Ballard last year. According to the Seattle Police Department, the Office of Professional Accountability (OPA) received a complaint of misconduct by an off-duty police officer that occurred in the early hours of December 12. Two days later the unnamed officer was administratively reassigned. Since then the OPA has referred the matter for internal criminal investigation.
