A Hidden Camera Caught A Cop Doing Something Quite Unexpected

Published on June 14, 2022
While we might not think about it, but there are plenty of hidden cameras strewn all around, whether we are aware of it or not. Sometimes, even though these cameras are there for security reasons, they might pick up unexpected things, which is exactly what happened at the El Paso police department. Deputy Tony Scherb, who had been with the force for 29 years, was known for being extremely strict, which is why everyone was so stunned to see the footage captured from a hidden camera. What was he doing?

It Was A Special Day

Tony Scherb stepped into the elevator one day, which was a bit different from the rest. He had a spring in his step that day, but he had no idea that he was being captured on a hidden camera.

Longest Serving Officer

Tony was known for being one of the longest serving officers on the force, but this was all coming to an end within a few hours. He spent 30 years working in the transport and traffic units, but the time had come for him to remove the badge and put the gun down.

Final Day on the Job

His last day finally came. He went into the office for one last time and was reminiscing about all of his years on the force with his co-workers. Three decades on a job is no simple feat, and of course he was feeling very bittersweet about his retirement.

He Didn’t Realize There was a Camera

Tony didn’t realize that there was a hidden camera filming the elevator that he stepped on to that day. It was actually only recently installed onto the elevator because it kept malfunctioning, and the building manager wanted to try to understand what was going on.

We All Do This…

Anyone who steps onto an empty elevator doesn’t immediately think about the fact that they might be filmed on a hidden camera. That’s why a lot of people end up doing things that they wouldn’t do in front of others. You have to wonder if they would act differently if they knew that there was a camera recording them.

Tony got into the elevator at the end of his last day of work. He was feeling emotional after saying goodbye to his co-workers. When he stepped onto the elevator, it was completely deserted.

Many elevators have music playing in the background when you step into them, and this was the case for the elevator that Tony got into. As he didn’t realize there was a camera, he immediately started dancing with abandon. He truly danced like nobody was watching, but it was actually all recorded!

Do You Know the Song?

We can’t blame Tony, as the song he heard was “Watch Me” by Silento, which not only was a popular song, but actually had a viral dance that went along with it. Tony was really killing it, showing off that fact that he knew the viral dance and the lyrics.

Someone Steps In…

Just before he reached the ground floor, the elevator made one more stop. His colleague Officer Reid stepped onto the elevator, only to find Tony dancing. She was utterly shocked when she saw this, since she was so used to his strictness and definitely wasn’t used to seeing a silly side of him.

The rest of the officers on the elevator stood still, waiting to see what his next move was. They didn’t have to wait long, though, and the Sheriff began leading the dance himself. That let everyone else feel comfortable enough to start dancing again.
