Charges dropped against officer who was fired by Isleta Pueblo

Prosecutors in Albuquerque, New Mexico, dropped all charges against a former police officer from Isleta Pueblo.

Mark Zuni, 43, was accused of sexual assault and kidnapping. But just minutes before his trial on Monday, prosecutors said they wouldn't proceed with the case.

A woman claimed Zuni assaulted her after he gave her a ride home from the tribe's casino in September 2008.
