The tow truck driver called police. An officer responded and advised Cane about the allegations and told him he needed to leave the lot. Cane denied the allegations, but admitted his genitals were exposed when the truck driver approached, police said.
Cane told investigators he’d just finished teaching a class at the police academy and pulled over to rest before heading home.
A criminal investigation was initiated, but investigators determined Cane did not intend to expose himself to the public. “It would not have been something we would have arrested [him] for or forwarded to the state for prosecution,” police spokesman Mike Puetz said.
In addition to the suspension, Cane also was removed from the SWAT team and Honor Guard and received a mandatory referral to the employee assistance program.
