A seven-year veteran of the San
Antonio Police Department was arrested Thursday night on a theft by public
servant charge, a third-degree felony.
Konrad Chatys, 32, was arrested
after a New Year's Eve incident in which he is accused of taking several thousand
dollars, a rifle and marijuana from a couple after a domestic disturbance call.
Eyewitness News has now learned
that Chatys served a 15-day suspension from late December 2013 to January 2014
for improper use of city property, according to suspension paperwork for
Chatys.
An Internal Affairs
investigation found in July 2013 that Chatys used his patrol vehicle's computer
to run background checks on three people for non-police purposes.
At the time, Chatys also had a
woman in his patrol vehicle whom he had picked up during a service call in the
7900 block of Pipers Creek, according to the paperwork. Chatys later lied while
being questioned by Internal Affairs investigators in October 2013.
