Ultimately, that investigation has resulted in the termination of his employment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Fraser Winter Park Police Department holds all our employees to a high standard of behavior,\u201d Police Chief Glen Trainor said in a Friday news release. \u201cEvery investigation of a violation of&nbsp;policy is taken very&nbsp;seriously.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trainor added that because this is a personnel matter, the department and the town of Winter Park will not comment further.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyhinews.com\/news\/fwp-police-officer-arrested-for-alleged-harassment\/\">Police were called to Curran\u2019s house<\/a> at about 8:30 p.m. June 28, where both Curran and his partner told officers they were in a verbal argument. Cellphone video footage taken by Curran\u2019s partner appears to capture the majority of the incident.<\/p>\n<p>According to a summary of the video in the district attorney\u2019s motion to dismiss, Curran attempted to remove himself from the situation multiple times.<\/p>\n<p>The arrest affidavit says that Curran\u2019s partner alleged he pushed her three times but did not strike her. However, the motion to dismiss describes the instances where Curran made physical contact with the woman as \u201cminor\u201d and \u201cincidental to (Curran\u2019s) effort to leave the area.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skyhinews.com\/news\/department-dismisses-fraser-winter-park-officer-involved-in-domestic-dispute\/?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: Sky-Hi News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Fraser Winter Park Police Department has fired an officer who was involved in a domestic dispute in late June, despite the District Attorney\u2019s Office moving to dismiss the case against him.
