Video allegedly shows police officer involved in sex act inside patrol car in Santa Ana

SANTA ANA, Calif. (FOX 11) - A video has surfaced showing a police officer in Santa Ana allegedly involved in a sex act in his patrol vehicle.

The video shows a uniformed officer sitting in the driver side apparently exposed below the waist in what appears to be a sex act with a civilian who is sitting in the passenger side of that marked police cruiser.

The incident happened at the train tracks near a recycling facility on South Main Street last April.

The police cruiser pulls up and the officer clears the homeless from a camp nearby but instead of driving off, the officer parks by a wall setting the stage for the illicit video.

The video was turned over to the Santa Ana Police Department who is conducting an investigation. The department released a statement that reads:

"We are aware of the video released by a media outlet. There is an ongoing internal investigation. It is the City's policy not to comment on any personnel matters."

The police officer in the video has not been identified.
