ISHPEMING -- A former Ishpeming police officer, charged with one count of domestic violence, will be in court Tuesday afternoon.  His name is not being released until after his arraignment.

The officer, who resigned from the Ishpeming Police Department Sunday, is charged with a misdemeanor.

Michigan State Police and Marquette County Prosecutor's Office investigated the allegations that were recently brought to their attention by the victim.

According to officials, the domestic violence incident happened in Marquette County at the officer's home between 2005 and 2006, with a family member.

Officials say the officer was on the force when the incident happened, but was not related to his work as an officer.

Authorities say the victim was not injured.

The officer is to appear in Ishpeming District Court Tuesday afternoon.
