Never invite a cop to your party.
cop not a stripper
Come on. $11?
When a man in a police uniform showed up at a bachelorette party in southwest Gainesville over the weekend, guests assumed he was the entertainment.
It wasn't until Gainesville Police Officer Jamie Hope drove away with the bride-to-be in handcuffs that those in attendance realized not only that the man in blue would not be taking off his clothes, but that the guest-of-honor was under arrest.
"They didn't go so far as to try and grab him," said Gainesville Police Sgt. Keith Kameg.
But they were wondering when the performance would start.
"When he was taking her to his car, everyone thought he was the stripper and everyone said, 'OK, the warning has gone far enough. Are you going to start stripping?' " Kameg said.
Hope, 30, a married, six-year Gainesville Police veteran, arrested the 24-year-old woman on a warrant for violation of probation involving an almost 2-year-old open-container citation. She had failed to pay $11 in connection with the citation, resulting in the probation violation and a warrant, court records show. The woman's bond was later set at $11 and she was released.
