(CBSNEWS) - Officials voted Tuesday to keep San Francisco's sheriff in office, nearly seven months after he pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor false imprisonment charge stemming from a New Year's Eve dispute with his actress wife.

Four of the 11-member Board of Supervisors voted against removing Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi. A minimum of nine votes were needed to oust him.

Mirkarimi was elected last fall and was mired in controversy before his swearing-in ceremony.
