City money used to pay for officers' drinks before brawl at South Side bar

PITTSBURGH — A night of binge drinking by four undercover Pittsburgh police detectives that ended with a brawl on the South Side was paid for with city money, Target 11 has confirmed.

The owner of Kopy's Bar told Channel 11 that the officers had been drinking for several hours before several members of the Pagans motorcycle club walked in just before midnight.

All four officers involved have been reassigned, and the charges that were initially brought against the Pagans have been dropped.
