Matthew Spillane, a lieutenant who works in the dispatch center and made about $272,000, was scheduled for an eight-hour overtime shift on July 17, when he was supposed to direct the towing of vehicles around the city.
But at 2:45 p.m., an hour and 15 minutes before his overtime shift was supposed to end, police say he was at home, where he accidentally discharged his department-issued gun.
Spillane, who was not injured, was never disciplined. He declined to comment through a department spokeswoman. [More]
