LONDON - A police inspector in charge of emergency calls for anti-social behaviour in central London has been arrested after she was caught drunk in the street.
An internal police investigation has been launched against 38-year-old Jo Northmore for her anti-social behaviour, reports the Daily Mail.
She was spotted turning over a road sign by two police officers as she stumbled home at 2am.
They followed her down the road and when challenged about her behaviour she refused to apologize and became abusive before she was arrested.
The City of London officer, who is in charge of handling all 999 calls about anti-social behaviour, was later given an 80 pounds fixed penalty notice for being drunk and disorderly.
The fine came after a night out in Shoreditch, East London, last Sunday.
According to The Sun newspaper, she was tagged in photographs on Facebook less than 24 hours later at different nightclub.
“We can confirm Met officers arrested a 38-year-old woman. She was issued with a fixed penalty notice,” Scotland Yard said.
“A misconduct investigation has begun,” City of London Police said. (ANI)
