Hyderabad: Video of cop helping drunk man sober up by hosing him goes viral

Hyderabad: Another video of the Hyderabad Police has gone viral on social media, this time showing personnel from Mangalhat police station helping a drunken man sober up by hosing him down on Sunday afternoon. According to the police, the man wandered into the station in an inebriated condition and demanded new clothes, thinking he had walked into a clothing store.

According to Mangalhat police inspector R. Srinivas Reddy, the man wandered into the station on Sunday at around 3.30 pm, asking a constable for fresh clothes as he had vomited on the ones he was wearing. “Our staff told him this was not a clothing store and directed him to a nearby shop. He then demanded they buy him a set of clothes as the ones he was wearing were damaged,” Reddy said. The constable then escorted the man out and initially attempted to clean his clothes, but ended up hosing him down, Reddy added.
