PITTSBURGH POLICE OFFICERS TRANSFERRED TO OTHER ASSIGNMENTS

Pittsburgh Police Chief Larry Scirotto says two motorcycle unit supervisors are now transferred to other assignments after providing security for the Trump rally in Butler Township back in July. Scirotto gave more in-depth information on the issue for the first time yesterday. The chief says a lieutenant and a sergeant did not have the proper authorization when they assigned officers to assist with the event. The lower ranking officers who were involved are not facing any discipline. The local FOP president says he has filed a grievance over the situation.
