Mere hours after being acquitted in the shooting deaths of a pair of unarmed citizens during which he stood on the hood of a car and fired directly into their vehicle at least 15 times, Cleveland police officer Michael Brelo was again taken into custody following a drunken, late-night fight with his twin brother.

According to CNN, the 31-year-old Brelo and his brother, Mark, were both arrested on assault charges in the early morning hours of May 27. Both are now scheduled to be arraigned on June 10, after being released from custody.

Reports are the two men squared off at the home of Michael Brelo sometime around 4 a.m., prompting an agitated Mark Brelo to bang on a woman's door and declare, "He needed help because of an incident with his brother."

"The investigation determined that both brothers had been drinking at Michael Brelo's residence and had gotten into a physical fight with each other," police said in a statement. "Both Brelos had observable injuries and admitted to being in a physical altercation. No weapons were involved in the assault."

On May 23, Judge John P. O'Donnell found Brelo not guilty of voluntary manslaughter in connection with the 2012 shooting deaths of Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams. In all, police pumped more than 100 bullets into the vehicle of the unarmed pair over just eight seconds, at least the last 15 of them coming from the revolver of Brelo.

In rendering his verdict, O'Donnell concluded Brelo "reasonably" believed he was in danger, even though neither of the victims ever returned gunfire. On the day of Brelo's acquittal, which sparked protest across various parts of the city, the U.S. Justice Department announced it will review now review the case for potential civil rights violations.

Meanwhile, Brelo remains on unpaid suspension, pending the completion of a police review committee investigation. Sgt. Ali Pilow said, "The Division of Police is aware of Mr. Brelo's current charge and the integrity control section will monitor this pending case."
