Witnesses at the store reported that he raised his hand as if to strike his wife, prompting staff intervention. Ordered to leave the premises, DeWitt allegedly responded with, “F*** you, I’m a cop!”

In response, DeWitt verbally lashed out and physically attacked the clerk, punching him in the face and ribs before causing chaos by tossing merchandise around the store.
The disgraced officer then made a hasty exit in a convertible Bentley.
Despite evading immediate consequences, DeWitt’s night took a turn for the worse when he was pulled over by a state trooper for speeding.
Unaware of the sex shop incident, the trooper was initially lenient but changed course upon hearing about the alleged assault.
DeWitt now faces charges of misdemeanor assault and has been suspended without pay pending a thorough investigation.
The incident shines a light on the unexpected places where law enforcement officers can find themselves entangled in controversy, prompting questions about accountability and professional conduct.
