Toronto police are investigating a video that appears to show a uniformed officer asleep at the wheel of a marked cruiser as it is double-parked on a spot for disabled drivers.

Const. Victor Kwong confirmed to the Star that police launched a probe after becoming aware of the short, 17-second video on Tuesday.

The clip drew attention after it was posted to the website Reddit. The video bears a watermark pointing to a Toronto viral video Instagram account, where the video was posted four days ago. It is unclear when it was first posted online.

“We take these matters very seriously and as such, have started an investigation,” Kwong said in an email, later adding that part of the probe will be determining when the 17-second video was shot.

The clip appears to show a lone officer asleep inside a Toronto police vehicle that’s straddling two parking spots. It’s not clear in which lot or in what part of the city the officer was parked. At least one of the spots is marked for disabled drivers.

The person taking the video on a cell phone at one point walks close to the cruiser and captures the officer appearing to be fast asleep inside. The clip does not show him wake up.

The Star could not immediately reach the Reddit user who posted the video Tuesday afternoon.
