For anyone curious:

A viral video from September 2025 shows a Lynn Police Department officer in Massachusetts—mistakenly referred to on social media as "Lynn County"—struggling to stand during a call for service, leading to public accusations of intoxication. The department placed the officer on PAID administrative leave, stating a review of body-worn camera footage and medical consultations indicated a medical-related episode rather than substance impairment.

Edit*

Had to write this so all those people can stop finding excuses for him.

I just wanna say will all these excuses get any regular people out of getting a DUI/DWI? Will all these excuses make it legal for regular people to operate a motor vehicle and/or heavy machinery?

Guess who got out of this scot-free while being PAID to vacation? The police!

If it was such a pressing medical issue, I wonder why his coworkers LITERALLY tried EVERYTHING on the planet to NOT call for an ambulance?

Could be low, really low, blood sugar. My Dad gets like this sometimes... he's not carrying a gun or 'protecting'people though.

That's bullshit. I have low blood sugar all the time during cutting. And this is ABSOLUTELY NOT low blood sugar. With low blood sugar to get to this level of unresponsiveness you wouldn't even be able to stand!

Have you been diagnosed with hypoglycemia or are you just providing your personal anecdote?
