Police officer pleads not guilty in Alabama assault case

Eric Parker, 26, has been charged with third degree assault, a Class A misdemeanor. He waived arraignment, according to Limestone County court documents.

CNN reached out to Parker’s attorney, Robert Tuten, for comment, but didn’t get an immediate response. Parker paid a $1,000 bail last week and was released from jail.

A trial by judge is scheduled for April 29.
