An off-duty Metro Police officer was caught trying to take alcohol onto Clifton’s fourth beach, by a colleague.
After he was told that the alcohol would be confiscated, he took out proof that he was an officer. He threatened his colleague who then fined him.
The Metro police officer threatened the officer who approached him, because he refused to accept the fine.
The internal affairs unit will be investigating the incident. He will now face a disciplinary action.
JP Smith, chairman of the city’s safety portfolio committee told the Weekend Argus that Metro police should be setting an example.
Smith also says an investigation into a captain based at Camps Bay is taking place. It is believed that the captain returned confiscated alcohol to people drinking in public.
