An Everett police officer is facing domestic assault-related charges after officials from his own department responded to an Elm Street home early Sunday morning.

Dino D’Andrea, 32, who lives in Everett and has served on the city’s police department for 8 ½ years, according to The Boston Globe, is being charged with assault and battery on a household member and intimidation of a witness.

Jennifer Peters, 32, also of Everett, is being charged with assault and battery on a household member.

D’Andrea and Peters were arraigned in Malden District Court on Monday and released on personal recognizance. They’re scheduled to return to court on April 3, according to the Middlesex County District Attorney’s Office.


Police were called to the home at 2:10 a.m. Sunday following a report of “an altercation between two parties.” The two were allegedly arguing when police arrived, and authorities found out there had also been physical contact. The two were separated and arrested, according to the district attorney’s office.

D’Andrea is currently on administrative leave with pay, according to the Globe.
