ORLANDO, Fla. -- An Orange County sheriff's deputy was fired after surveillance video showed him urinating in a public elevator.
Recent complaints of a foul odor inside the R & R Limited public parking garage in Orange County prompted the building's manager to set up a video camera inside an elevator.
When the manager and police checked the videotapes, Orange County Sheriff's Deputy Carl Brown was shown urinating in the corner of the elevator, WKMG-TV in Orlando reported.
"It's certainly nothing you would expect from anybody, much less a deputy sheriff," Orange County Sheriff's Office spokesman Jim Solomons said.
The manager said Brown, who works at the nearby county courthouse, was constantly relieving himself inside the elevator.
Since the videotape was given to authorities, Brown has reportedly admitted to urinating in the elevator and in some nearby bushes.
"It smelled bad," resident John Minka said. "To urinate in a public elevator, that's just wrong."
The urine caused about $200 worth of damage to the elevator, according to Local 6 News.
