Officers on a
routine helicopter patrol on Monday night inadvertently
activated the aircraft's public address system while they were
having a private conversation, the Winnipeg Police Service said
in a statement.
"Some content of the conversation was inappropriate. The
involved members were not able to hear the public address system
from within the aircraft. They became aware their conversation
had been broadcast and immediately turned the system off," the
police said.
News of the R-rated conversation took off on Twitter as the city
residents who could hear the conversation took to social media
to urge the police to turn off their loudspeaker.
"Pilots in the Winnipeg police helicopter having a conversation
with their loudspeaker on. Pretty funny to hear," tweeted one
resident.
"Does the #Winnipeg chopper realize the entire West End can hear
their convo about blow jobs right now?" tweeted another, who
noted she was listening from her backyard.
The police service said the incident was being reviewed.
