Fort Worth Cop Fired For Searching Porn At Work

FORT WORTH (CBSDFW.COM) - A Fort Worth police captain has been fired after investigators found the officer had been using his city-issued computer to search porn sites.

The captain, L.A. Harris, has also been accused of self-gratification while on duty in a city facility and in uniform.

Harris had been assigned as one of two overnight duty captains. An internal affairs investigation found Harris had visited the sites while on duty over a six month period.

In a statement, Chief Jeff Halstead called Harris' behavior "absolutely deplorable."

Harris was a 22-year veteran of the Fort Worth Police Department. He had been made captain last June.
