RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) - Federal authorities say a Los Angeles police officer has been arrested for selling drugs while off duty.

The U.S. attorney's office in San Diego said Wednesday that 28-year-old Yoshio Romero was arrested at his home Monday on suspicion of selling methamphetamine.

According to the criminal complaint, Romero arranged to sell more than 100 grams of the drug to a buyer in Escondido and allegedly left the drugs in a candy box in his truck.

Romero was arraigned in federal court in Riverside on Tuesday. It was not immediately known if he had retained an attorney.

His next court date is set for June 10 in San Diego.
