Talk about police beatings: London cop arrested after masturbating in public

A uniformed police officer filmed masturbating in public was charged today with outraging public decency, reports Dagenham News. The man remains in custody.

A man, in PCSO uniform, was recorded performing a sex act on himself in a London park in the middle of the day. The video shows him performing the act, being confronted by an astonished onlooker, and then his unique, identifying 'badge number' being photographed to make the evidence nearly indisputable.

The footage went viral on Twitter late wednesday: "care to explain one of your officers having a wank in the park?" asked a Twitter user who posted the video.
