San Antonio police officer gets 30-day suspension for shopping, home visits while on duty

A San Antonio police officer last month received a 30-day suspension without pay after an internal affairs probe found that he went shopping for auto parts while on duty and visited his home during times when he should have been handling service calls, KSAT reports, citing department records. The same officer, Mark Walaski, received an indefinite suspension in 2017 after SAPD concluded that he'd had a relationship with a woman accused of prostitution, according to KSAT. He returned to work the following year after reaching a negotiated settlement with the department, an SAPD spokesperson told the TV station.
