A Creola police officer who was fired Monday allegedly used a rope to choke an inmate in the city’s jail and kicked the prisoner late last month, according to a report.
Mobile County Jail records showed ex-Creola Police Officer Gary Davis was booked Friday on two assault charges and was released on $15,000 bond, although court records were not available for more details on the alleged incident.
Mobile County Chief Assistant District Attorney Keith Blackwood told Fox 15 in Mobile that an indictment against Davis alleged that the officer used a rope to choke an inmate at the Creola City Jail on April 21.
