Police Officer Under Investigation After Driving Hulk Hogan On Chicago Airport Tarmac

A Chicago police officer found himself in some hot water after footage from Hulk Hogan’s Facebook account showed him driving around the pro wrestling legend and Jimmy Hart on the tarmac of O’Hare International Airport.

According to the Chicago Tribune, the officer is now under investigation by the department’s Bureau of Internal Affairs. He was assigned to the airport and decided to take them on the drive with his sirens on.

The video features him indicating that he was given permission to drive the WWE Hall of Famers around.

Anthony Guglielmi, a spokesman for police Superintendent Eddie Johnson, issued a statement where he noted that the officer has lost a special certification that allows officers to drive vehicles on the tarmac.

“The activity and behavior demonstrated in that video poses a significant risk to the officers and overall aviation safety on the airfield,” Guglielmi said. “The superintendent was furious about what he saw.”
