Video Shows Uniformed NYPD Officers Dirty Dancing At West Indian Day Parade
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) - It's raunchy, racy and now under investigation.
It's just the latest headache coming out of the recent West Indian Day Parade. NYPD officers were caught on camera grinding and gyrating with half-naked women in full uniform. Were they out of line?
Some fully clothed folks were getting down and dirty as well. In fact, their outfits -- or uniforms, rather -- stick out like a sore thumbs.
"I think that is totally wrong. They should've been standing by observing. There could've been a fight, anything," Dahlia Clarke told CBS 2's Emily Smith.
The video shows some of the women approaching the officers -- seemingly encouraging them to dance -- with the crowd cheering them on.
The NYPD sent CBS 2 a statement saying it ''is investigating'' the incident, which took place during the West Indian Day Parade in Brooklyn -- a parade known for its wild costumes and uninhibited dancing.
Some folks may find the dirty dancing in the video graphic, as little is left to the imagination.
