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.
Gallegos' son was involved in a "verbal altercation" with the teen, which allegedly prompted the attack, according to police. Prosecutors told the court that Gallegos approached the teen in an alley, hit him and then threw him against a garage; he also allegedly kicked the boy after he fell to the ground.
