Since the advent of online gaming, workplaces and schools have been struggling to keep up, blocking any sites they consider counter-productive. Who knew this would be a problem with cops in the field?
During a drug raid in March, detectives found a Wii sitting among the suspect's belongings. Some bored investigators decided to fire it up and start playing bowling in Wii Sports while colleagues continued scouring the home for evidence.
Little did they know, the suspect had a wireless camera hooked up to his computer, and it caught the detectives goofing off. Now they're taking heat from the department and public.
Here's the surveillance footage: COPS ARE AWESOME BOWLERS
With guns drawn and flashlights cutting through darkened rooms, Polk County undercover drug investigators stormed the home of convicted drug dealer Michael Difalco near Lakeland in March.
As investigators searched the home for drugs, some drug task force members found other ways to occupy their time. Within 20 minutes of entering Difalco's house, some of the investigators found a Wii video bowling game and began bowling frame after frame.
While some detectives hauled out evidence such as flat screen televisions and shotguns, others threw strikes, gutter balls and worked on picking up spares.
A Polk County sheriff's detective cataloging evidence repeatedly put down her work and picked up a Wii remote to bowl. When she hit two strikes in a row, she raised her arms above her head, jumping and kicking.
While a female detective lifted a nearby couch looking for evidence, another sheriff's detective focused on pin action.
But detectives with the Polk County Sheriff's Office, the Auburndale, Lakeland and Winter Haven police departments did not know that a wireless security camera connected to a computer inside Difalco's home was recording their activity.
