A Chicago cop vacationing in Florida was arrested after he allegedly urinated in an ice machine at a St. Petersburg bar, according to the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office.
The reportedly foul-mouthed Windy City officer, Henry Capouch, was caught in the act by a worker at Jimmy B’s Beach Bar early Monday morning.
When the employee went to grab some ice, he spotted Capouch allegedly “pissing” in the machine, according to an arrest report obtained by WFLA.
The worker asked Capouch to stop, but the officer swore at and shoved him “a couple of times,” according to the arrest document.
A deputy, who responded to the bar around 12:30 a.m., was escorted by the worker and security to the beach, where Capouch and his girlfriend were sitting.
Officers wrote in their report that Capouch was “actively resisting,” and refused to follow the deputy’s commands as they attempted to detain him.
Capouch’s decision to allegedly relieve himself in the machine may have been influenced by alcohol, officers noted in the documents.
He was charged with disorderly conduct and simple battery.
Capouch is a five-year veteran of the Chicago Police Department, WGN reported. The department has opened an internal investigation into the incident, a CPD spokesperson confirmed to the outlet.
