BOCA RATON, Fla., July 9 (UPI) -- Police in Boca Raton, Fla., said an officer was suspended for 84 hours without pay for looking at pornography on his work computer.

A police internal affairs report released Thursday said officer Samuel McCoy, 30, was suspended for "conduct unbecoming" after investigators looked at his city-issued laptop computer and discovered 26 pornographic pictures, 104 pictures of women in revealing bathing suits and 23 sexually suggestive videos from YouTube, the South Florida Sun Sentinel reported Friday.

McCoy told the department he did not recognize some of the images but admitted viewing the other pictures and videos while off duty.

"He's taken responsibility for his actions," Fraternal Order of Police President Kelly Shifflett said. "He has accepted his discipline and he's looking to put the incident behind him and getting back to work."
