A New Jersey cop who overdosed on heroin in his patrol car while he was on duty has lost his job, authorities say.
An on-duty New Jersey police officer who was behind the wheel of his patrol car when he was found overdosed on heroin in April has lost his job, authorities said Friday.
Shortly after 1 a.m. on April 7, Ellery was working when dispatch attempted to reach him via police radio, according to the Somerset County Prosecutor’s Office. After he failed to respond, an officer went looking for him at his last known location and found him unresponsive in the driver's seat of his patrol car that was parked in the driveway of a business.
Ellery pleaded guilty in superior court Friday to possession of heroin and driving while intoxicated.
