The woman was shocked after allegedly failing to drop a steak knife at a care home.

Senior Constable Kristian White has been suspended with pay and will face court on charges including assault and recklessly inflicting grievous bodily harm.

Australian correspondent Murray Olds says Senior Constable Kristian White is expected to appear in court early July.
