A Pittsburgh police officer was
arrested around 3:20 a.m. Monday and charged with driving under the influence
and careless driving, court records show.
Michael Lafferty, 29, was
assigned today to support services, pending an investigation by the Office of
Municipal Investigations, acting police Chief Regina McDonald said in a
statement. His preliminary hearing is scheduled for April 7.
When 3-day-old Bryce Coleman
disappeared in August 2012 from Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC, Officer
Lafferty, who has been a city officer since Sept. 2009, helped identify and
locate suspect Breona Moore.
