The police officer bit into a sandwich Monday and encountered a crunching sound and a grisly texture.
When he looked inside the sandwich, he saw shards of glass. Then he discovered his mouth was bleeding.
The unidentified officer had to be hospitalized after the incident Monday, according to ABC 6. It happened at a restaurant in Columbus, Ohio, though investigators are not naming the establishment.
Detectives have not determined if the glass was placed there accidentally or on purpose, but the restaurant was shut down to conduct interviews.
There have been several incidents of violence against police officers nationwide recently. Five officers were killed in Dallas on July 7 and three were killed in Baton Rouge last weekend. There have been numerous other incidents of attempted violence.
The extent of the Columbus officers injuries were unknown.
Columbus Public Health officials will be at the restaurant Tuesday to investigate possible violations.
I cannot find words. I sincerely hope the officer will be OK, and hope he did not swallow any glass. This is horrible. I just do not see how this could be an accident.
If I was a cop, especially in a big city, I would not eat out.

Are you not a 1000 times more likely to be murdered by a someone of your own race than be killed by a cop doing their job. (I chose murder and killed for a reason and hope people understand the difference)
A police officer murdering someone is a very rare event when you realize the millions of time a day they interact with people.
