Bellevue Police Investigate Officers for Taunting, Littering Before Seahawks Game

Bellevue police officers are under investigation for off-duty behavior, after Seattle police say that several officers taunted a police officer and littered at last Sunday's Seahawks game, The Seattle Times reported.

According to the Seattle Times' report, an on-duty Seattle police officer approached a group of three outside CenturyLink Stadium before the game to ask that they throw away an empty beer cup that one of them had dropped on the ground.

A Seattle police Assistant Chief Jim Pugel told the Times that two members of the group identified themseleves as Bellevue police officers and called the Seattle officer names.

Another officer who saw the incident called for backup, according to the report. The group then taunted the sergeant and lieutentant who responded, according to the report.

According to Seattle police, no Seattle report was filed because no crime was committed, but Pugel told the Times that he reported the incident to Bellevue Chief Linda Pillo, who has said that she ordered the department's Office of Professional Standards to investigate.

According to the statement, Pillo personally called the Seattle officer to apologize, and said she was disappointed in the behavior of the officers. 

The Times called for a swift investigation and an apology from the off-duty Bellevue officers. What do you think? Does this incident affect how you feel about the Bellevue Police Department?
