PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — A suspended Providence police officer is in custody after he allegedly sent threatening text messages to his doctor.

Police said Scott Logan was arrested Wednesday and charged with cyber-stalking and disorderly conduct.

The nature of the messages that were sent to a doctor in Johnston was not disclosed.

The 20-year veteran of the force has been arrested two other times in recent months.

Logan was indicted in August on a charge of altering marks of identification on a firearm. He was released after pleading not guilty and was suspended from the police force.

Last week, the 45-year-old officer was released on $25,000 personal recognizance after being accused of sending a text message that threatened three superior officers.
