A Minneapolis police officer has been relieved of duty amid allegations that he left an emergency call to have sexual relations with a civilian he met on a dating app.

The patrol officer of six years remains on paid leave pending an investigation, according to four sources with knowledge of the case. The Star Tribune is choosing not to identify the officer, as he has not been formally disciplined.

Text messages submitted to Internal Affairs — and obtained by the Star Tribune — reveal a conversation between the 28-year-old Fifth Precinct officer and an unidentified person during the course of a recent overnight shift, although the exact date is unknown. He shares an apparent photo of his penis and inquires whether the civilian would be interested in providing oral sex to “a cop in uniform.”

The civilian agrees and sends him their location, before requesting a photo of his face. The officer then takes a selfie from his squad car in what appears to be his uniform, where the grated partition in the back is readily visible.

When the civilian responded with a suggestive photo of their own, the officer wrote, “Okay, give me a sec, let’s see if I can leave this call.” Ten minutes later, the officer wrote that he had arrived at their apartment and was provided instructions to be buzzed upstairs.

Time stamps indicate that the messages were exchanged over a 2 ¹⁄₂ hour period during the normal working hours of his shift. The overnight shift, known as “dogwatch,” typically runs until about 6:30 a.m.

The conduct raises serious questions about whether the officer left an emergency call while on duty in order to receive sexual favors — and misused city resources to do so.

He was escorted off city property after reporting for work on Oct. 7.

A police spokesman declined to confirm key details about this case, including the officer’s suspension.

“The MPD treats all allegations of misconduct seriously, and Chief [Brian] O’Hara has ordered an investigation into the matter,” a department statement reads. “The Minnesota Data Practices Act is extremely restrictive and precludes comment on matters of great public interest without creating significant legal risk. As information is deemed public under state law, the Department is committed to sharing that information.”

The suspension comes just two weeks after the department launched an investigation into a female officer for operating a private OnlyFans account under a pseudonym, where she posted nude photos and pornographic videos — often alongside her husband — for paid subscribers. The erotic content appeared to violate the department’s off-duty work policy, which forbids taking jobs in ‘adult entertainment.’

Sources say department administration has been aware of the account for nearly a year and felt it was inappropriate to comment on her private life, as long as it didn’t impact her job performance. She is a Fourth Precinct officer who has won several commendations for, among other things, providing lifesaving medical care to gunshot victims.

The day after a TV news report aired exposing her as an OnlyFans model, the officer raised her prices by $20 a month.

It has since been deactivated.
