TAMPA, Fla. - Cops busted in Strip Club

OFF THE WIRE
Tampa police chief Jane Castor says she's fired two undercover officers for drinking and hanging out at a strip club while they were on duty.
Officers Paul Madsen and Antonio Ortega were given the pink slip at the conclusion of an internal investigation.
Castor says, on November 9th, the officers had been drinking before their shifts. They then checked in as on-duty on their computers and headed to The Penthouse Club on N. Westshore Boulevard.
Their supervisors, who have since been suspended, found out about the officers' whereabouts later that evening and sent them home.
Ortega is a 10-year veteran of the department. Castor says she's embarrassed and says the officers, who weren't rookies, should have used better judgement.
