A drunken Massachusetts state trooper was arrested after he broke into a woman’s Boston apartment — and passed out in her bed, according to court records.
Officer Michael E. McGuire, 37, was slapped with a breaking and entering charge after climbing into the South End pad around 1:30 a.m. Sunday, the Boston Globe reported.
The woman — the trooper’s unidentified ex-girlfriend — told police the couple called it quits a month ago, but met up for drinks Saturday night.
McGuire allegedly got so drunk that his she told him to go home around 10:30 p.m., according to court documents.
She later returned home to find the cop “sleeping in her bed,” the outlet reported.
“The victim stated she asked the suspect to leave the apartment multiple times and he refused,” the report stated.
The woman and her roommate dialed 911 and rushed outside to meet police.
When asked how he broke in, McGuire bragged that he climbed the fire escape, the roommate told police.
While the officers were waiting outside the residence, McGuire came to the lobby to let them in.
“Officers observed a small laceration on the suspect’s forehead. When McGuire was asked how he was injured, he stated the victim hit him with an object but stated ‘I did not want to get her in trouble,’” according to police.
Responding officers noted McGuire was stumbling around and unsteady on his feet.
A police supervisor was called to the scene after cops realized McGuire was an off-duty trooper.
He was immediately yanked from duty and suspended, officials said.
“When this incident came to our attention, the Massachusetts State Police immediately relieved Trooper McGuire of duty,” a department spokesperson told the Globe.
“This alleged off-duty conduct is deeply concerning and falls far short of the standards of professionalism expected of every member of the department.”
McGuire was arraigned Tuesday in Boston Municipal Court, where a judge let him walk on his own personal recognizance and ordered him to stay away from the victim.
His attorney invoked the BRAVE Act, which allows service members to pursue specialized treatment and temporarily pause criminal proceedings.
