Police in Teso, Busia county are investigating an incident where a senior cop caused a stir in Busia town after he fired in the air twice over an altercation involving a woman.
In a statement, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) stated that the cop aforementioned took his lover to a local bar to unwind from the hurly-burly of daily activities.
"Earlier at around 11 pm, the cop had walked into Didis pub in the company of a beautiful babe only identified as Daisy, to unwind after a long day’s work of protecting lives and property at a nearby police station. The cop ordered drinks and the two imbibed the frothy waters while conversing in low tones, as Daisy giggled occasionally to their private chats while leaning on the cop’s shoulder, leaving him beaming with excitement," the statement reads in parts.
The two enjoyed cosy moments until 2:30 am when the woman saw a male friend and went to exchange pleasantries with him, this made the cop uncomfortable and consequently forced him to walk out leaving the woman behind.
Efforts by the woman to explain herself to the cop failed to bear fruit as the officer got into his car and drove off with the woman's handbag.
