A Los Angeles traffic cop has been fired after he was caught in appearing in a porn film while on duty and in uniform.
John K. Dancler, who has worked in the role for 23 years, was stripped of his role for 'misconduct on the job and engaging in indecent acts that reflected poorly on the city workforce'.
The officer's discharge notice said his indecent acts included 'groping the bare breasts, spanking the bare buttocks, and being straddled by an adult video actress in public,' around March 2008.
Mr Dancler, who had worked at the Department of Transportation, challenged his firing on the same day, and has filed an appeal with the city's Civil Service Commission.
Mr Dancler and another traffic officer came under investigation three months ago after KNBC reported they appeared in a video showing a uniformed officer spanking and fondling an actress.
While Mr Dancler has been fired, the other officer in the movie, Vaughn Dorsey, has been allowed to return to his job as a parking enforcement officer in the Valley Division after being disciplined, NBC reported.
In the film, Mr Dorsey stood by while a porn actress got into his official police car and performed lewd acts on herself on camera, according to NBC.
Mr Dorsey received appropriate discipline and is still working, a transportation department spokesman said.
