Officer was accused of looting after he was filmed moving alcohol away from 7-Eleven store.
The force said the officer had confiscated the bottles he was seen holding from a woman and called for back-up. The force released the dispatch call the officer made to back up their version of events.
"If you have another one man come over towards the 7-Eleven and the liquor store please? I'm having multiple homeless people trying to run in and steal all the stuff that's out," the officer can be heard saying. Police said the officer called for back-up two minutes before he took the bottles from the woman and was captured by the news camera.
"He was protecting the property of the business owner. The officer was also there to assist anyone in need of help," the department said. "Officers of the Dallas Police Department take their roles seriously and serve to protect the community with honor and bravery. The men and women in blue go to work everyday mindful of the badge, their integrity and most of all the public's trust."
