A New York City police officer has been suspended after showing up for work with a sopped liver.
A Bronx cop was stripped of his gun and badge amid allegations that he was drunk on the job — and a photo emerged of him passed out in the stationhouse locker room with his beer belly exposed.
Officer Richard Evans was deemed “unfit for duty” during his midnight-to-8 a.m. shift in the 52nd Precinct in Norwood.
Someone at the scene also shot video of the allegedly drunken cop and made a complaint to 311. A sergeant responded, declared Evans fit for duty, and the cops all left without making any arrests.
Evans stayed in the field until a short time later, when a duty captain summoned him back to the precinct stationhouse. The captain interviewed Evans, declared him unfit for duty and immediately suspended him.
I assume the sergeant’s ineptitude will be explained away by claiming Officer Evans drank an entire gallon of vodka in the half hour between the sergeant’s evaluation and the captain’s.
I think he was really suspended for having a Bear’s helmet on his locker!

Here is my sarcastic guess: The Sargent looked at him and said he looks like he always does when he shows up to work. The Captain wasn’t used to seeing him, so he suspended him.

Mike – The NYPD doesn’t take too kindly to people rooting for Chi-Town.
Ingineer – Not a bad analysis, since the captain would rarely stop by during the overnight shift.
