TRUSSVILLE – Over the weekend, a Birmingham police officer, who resides in Trussville, was charged with third-degree domestic violence at a residence on the 400 block of Linden Street.
Trussville Police Captain Jeff Bridges said Officer Adam Voss, 36, was arrested around 2 a.m. Saturday.
Bridges confirmed that a protection from abuse order was issued against Voss.
According to the protection request that was filed by the victim, the girlfriend said Voss, “Slammed my face on the floor, handcuffed me, refused to let me leave my house or call 911, threw me into multiple walls, threw me down the stairs, and dragged me by my hair all over the house.”
Voss’ accuser also said that on New Year’s Day, “He punched my face, threw me into the Christmas tree, slammed my face into the floor, busted my nose and blackened my eye.”
A March 28 hearing date has been set on the protection from abuse order.
Voss has been ordered to move out of the home that he shares with the victim, who has two children under the ages of 10. In addition, he was ordered to surrender all of his guns to the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.
