Cop Retires, Gets Fancy Reporter Job, Drives Drunk into Police Horse...

It is truly amazing how many different ways there are to get a DUI. Just ask TV Newsman Mike Sheehan. He recently got charged with DWI according to this article in the NYDailyNews.com website. To the left is an actual screen shot of the website that shows his vehicle and his official Fox photo.

Mike should know something about the dangers of drunk driving, because he's an ex-cop! As a former NYPD detective, he must have many stories of collaring nefarious perps. But unfortunately ex-detective Sheehan found himself on the wrong side of the law recently.

Apparently he ran into a police horse, injuring the officer and damaging his own vehicle. That is a real shame when innocent animals get hurt. I certainly don't approve of DUI's that hurt animals (or anyone, for that matter). I wonder what type of discussion took place after the accident. I'm pretty confident that Sheehan identified himself as ex-NYPD.

A lot of cops might have skipped the DUI investigation as a courtesy to a former copper. But hey, when you hurt a man's horse or dog, you gotta expect retribution, whether it's the wild wild west or the upper-west side. By the way, Sheehan's lawyer is blaming the horse. Seriously. The horse.
