The cop, who was arrested in May in an assault on a Westchester schoolteacher, turned himself in at Carmel police headquarters Saturday morning, police said.

Yokemick was arraigned in Carmel County Criminal Court on Saturday night on charges of assault in the third degree, burglary in the first degree and criminal mischief. He was suspended from his desk job at the Queens warrants squad for 30 days.

The woman was treated at Putnam Hospital and released, police said. Yokemick was freed from the Putnam County Jail after posting $30,000 bail, jail officials said.

Desk duty since 1998

The cop has been on modified duty - with no gun or shield - since the 1998 incident in which he hurled the 2-pound radio at the head of Kenneth Banks, a fleeing alleged drug dealer.

Yokemick was acquitted of criminal charges in Banks' death when a jury determined that Banks' skull was fractured not by the radio, but by striking the pavement. The city paid a $1.1 million civil settlement.

In addition to the settlement paid by the city, a Manhattan Federal Court jury last year ordered Yokemick to pay $605,000 in damages to the dead man's mother, Maybell Banks.

Yesterday, Maybell Banks said Yokemick's latest arrest shows her son was the victim of a dangerous man.

"Mr. Craig Yokemick strikes again," she said. "If he had been convicted of my son's murder, he would not have had this opportunity to hurt anyone else."

Yokemick allegedly attacked second-grade teacher John Richardson in April outside the teacher's home in Yorktown, Westchester County. Charges are pending in that incident.

"With his history, he deserves to be off the street doing some jail time," Richardson said yesterday.
