Memphis
cop suspended, charged
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - A Memphis city cop has been suspended
from duty after being charged with domestic assault. A warrant was taken out for
53-year-old Lee Potts on Wednesday. The Shelby County Sheriff's Office was
called Friday and found a 37-year-old woman who had visible injury to her face.
Potts - who was off duty at the time of the incident - was charged with
striking her. He was relieved of duty later that day, per department policy.
Potts has been a city cop since March of 1998.
