Off-Duty Cop Accused Of Taking Photos Of Kids

CBS) LOS ANGELES An internal investigation will be conducted into allegations that an off-duty Los Angeles police officer was taking photos of young children at a strawberry festival in Garden Grove, an LAPD spokesman said Tuesday.

The officer, whose name was not released, was chased and tackled by a father, who seized the officer's camera and a gun about noon Saturday. Mark Dornan said that he noticed the man taking pictures of his daughter, 5, and son, 3, at the Strawberry Festival in Garden Grove.

"He came up and tried to sneak a picture of my daughter climbing out of this wagon in a short dress," Dornan told the news station.

Dornan chased the man and said the off-duty officer was trying to delete photos from his camera as he fled. Dornan caught the man and tackled him, finding a semiautomatic .45-caliber Colt pistol tucked in the man's shorts.

Garden Grove police took the camera as possible evidence, but let him keep the gun. "Right now, this whole thing is getting blown way out of proportion," Garden Grove police Sgt. Jim Fischer said. Police said the images themselves did not constitute a crime.

Garden Grove police detectives are investigating the run-in and will decide whether to seek charges.

An internal LAPD investigation will be conducted, Sgt. Lee Sands of the Los Angeles Police Department's Media Relations Section said.
