Sometimes people should simply be more careful, especially when they are policemen. A local police inspector from Cullera in Valencia has admitted that he lost his pistol when he stopped to urinate on the Dosel beach in the town.

It happened last April 4 when the policeman found himself indisposed when in his patrol car, and without realising lost his loaded gun on the beach when relieving himself.

The Diario Levante EMV reports that he was spotted by a passing civil guard patrol who thought his behaviour was rather odd.
They took a look and found the gun on the ground and an investigation was opened to establish what had happened.
