An arrest warrant was issued Wednesday for a Dallas police officer on a charge of official oppression.
The misdemeanor charge against Sgt. James Cullen Bristo, 59, stems from an incident in August. Official oppression involves accusations that a public servant has used his office to mistreat someone or deny them their rights.
Police declined to provide any additional information about the case, referring a reporter back to a five-sentence Facebook post announcing the warrant.
