A sergeant resigned abruptly Friday and the police department’s second in command was put on administrative leave after accusations surfaced that they broadcast racial slurs over a “pirate” FM radio station.
The sergeant periodically used a homemade studio in the basement of his city home for the middle-of-the-night racist broadcasts, according to the NAACP, which held a press conference Friday at police headquarters to publicize the complaint.
The unlicensed broadcasts were billed as WNFR - “Nigger-Free Radio,” according to the NAACP and state Rep. Roger Michele, D-Bristol, who lodged the complaint.
