Off-Duty

drunken row with his wife turned violent inside their Coney Island apartment.

arrested on charges of Reckless Endangerment, Criminal Mischief, Menacing, and

was sparked by a broken remote control. A police source tells the tabloid that
Galper allegedly "snarled" at his wife: "You b-tch, you broke
the remote control! You owe me money, so get me a new one!" He then allegedly
spat in her face, threw bottles of perfume and vases at her (but missed), and
knocked over a bookshelf.
Sources tell the Daily News the
bookshelf was glass, and Galper's wife sustained a small cut from the shattered
glass. She locked herself in the bedroom until cops arrived to arrest the cop.

Daily News identify him as such.)
