A police officer in Maryland has had his “police powers” suspended after he was accused of installing a camera in the boy’s restroom at Glen Burnie High School.
A spokesperson for the Anne Arundel County Police on Thursday confirmed that the 14-year veteran had installed the camera, according to WJZ. Details of what had been recorded and why were being investigated.
Police said that a boy discovered the hand-held camera in the top corner of the restroom and reported it to school officials on Wednesday morning.
“We do not know that the officer’s intentions were,” Lt. T.J. Smith explained. “That’s an important issue that we’re trying to get to the bottom of.”
An initial investigation determined that the Special Services Bureau officer purchased and installed the camera without getting permission from the department or school officials.
“The police officer’s police powers have been suspended,” Smith said.
