An Indiana police department has fired an officer after only two days on the job for racist social media posts he made before getting hired, according to local news reports.
Chaz Foy started working for the Marion Police Department on Monday, according to a Facebook post by the department, but was fired on Wednesday, Police Chief Angela Haley said in a statement.
Haley said “some racist posts” on the officer’s personal Facebook account were brought to her attention on Tuesday. After she reviewed them, she said, she determined they were “not in keeping with the standards of the Marion Police Department.”
“I do not condone this type of behavior and will not tolerate it,” Haley added.
In one screenshot shared by Channel 27, an alleged post from June 1, 2022, showed Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin kneeling on George Floyd’s neck.
The caption read: “With gas hitting 4.89 and climbing, let’s all take a moment to appreciate better times.”
Another screenshot shows an alleged post made by Foy on April 13, 2021, in which an illustration of a Black man was labeled “Martin Looter King.”
