DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) - The controversy over Chick-Fil-A may now have impacted the Dallas Police Department.
CBS 11 has learned a Dallas Police Sergeant brought a sandwich from the embattled restaurant chain to work with him last Wednesday, August 1, a day known around the country as Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day.
When the Sergeant arrived at his post at the Southeast patrol, words were exchanged between himself and two female officers.
And while it is unclear who started the argument, police have launched an investigation into the matter.
A department spokesperson says the issue is not whether the sergeant brought the sandwich into the substation, but whether inappropriate comments were exchanged between him and the two female officers while on duty.
The Dallas Police Association, who represents all three of the officers, say they are getting two versions of the story, and while they are neutral on the issue, the association is frustrated by a move made by the department before the investigation was complete.
The DPA points out the two female officers happen to be homosexuals. They also point out that the sergeant was responsible for reading the evening bulletins to all officers in the Southeast patrol that evening, including information on possible crowd control issues at Chick-Fil-A’s in the area.
Chick-Fil-A recently came under fire for the company CEO’s stance on traditional marriage roles.
The association says what concerns them most is that before the internal investigation into the matter was resolved the sergeant was moved to a midnight shift at the Lew Sterret Justice Center, which the association views as punishment.
The association also views the move as the department taking a stance on the issue before the full internal investigation was complete.
The Dallas Police Association says it is pushing for mediation in the incident between all three officers, but as of this point, that has not occurred.
Make it "Sapphos" and you're golden.
Did I spell LESBIAN right?
What I’m taking away from this is that anyone pulled over by a homosexual police officer and found to be in possession of Chick-fil-A can expect to be harassed.
BRILLIANT!!!
Don’t hold back, tell us how you REALLY feel.
Love it!

OK, pick this series of statements apart, maybe we can help these clueless cops out. Let's see now...
The guy goes out and brings back a sandwich for lunch and two lesbians with an obvious agenda motivated by this phony controversy don't like where he bought it, and an argument ensues about his sandwich.
But police authorities can't figure out what happened.
Morons. I know they're not really this stupid, they're just political tools, but people like this should not be enforcing the law.
Now you can't get them to STFU!
