This week SSPD was caught on Fire again. Earlier last month the stations gas lines broke and caused a fire. The fire killed two officers and injured two civilians. The department still has 3 pending law suits and is under attack for the new chiefs view on the incident. Fire investigators were able to determine that the fire was caused by a welding tool left in the basement of the building. According to many sources an officer tazed the repair guy causing him to drop the torch. The officer is now under investigation for breaking SOP. All though very little has be given to the public, the information that we could gather was that the officer mistook the repair man as a threat and tazed him, because he thought that he was a threat. The officer was put on administrative leave without pay. While the Video evidence was destroyed in the fire there was still the camera footage from the officers body cam. "It appeared that the officer was concerned that the man was welding on of the bars on the holding cell."- SSPD. We were unable to get an interview with the repair man due to his name not being released to the public yet.
once we get more information on the incident we will update you.
