The NYPD says a Suffolk County police offcer has been arrested for the second time in less than four months.
They say Officer Denis O'Connor was arrested Friday, accused of violating an order of protection and grabbing a 38-year-old woman inappropriately in Manhattan last week.
The 36-year-old was also arrested in Southampton in December after an alleged domestic dispute. Court records say O'Connor hit a woman in the face with his hand.
O'Connor's lawyer tells Newsday the charges are "fabricated and without merit."
O'Connor has been suspended from the police department without pay.
