WATERBURY, Conn.
A Waterbury police officer accused of warning a friend about a drug investigation has been fired.
Twenty-nine-year-old Israel Lugo had been accused last month of illegally disclosing information about a state police drug investigation that netted 20 pounds of marijuana.
Lugo was arrested June 23 after police said he illegally used a police computer to check the license plate of a state police vehicle that was tailing the target of a drug investigation.
Police say that Lugo was lifelong friends with 29-year-old Shaun Ducham who was arrested June 20 after state police raided his home and seized guns, 20 pounds of marijuana and about $1,000 in cash.
Lugo was with the department for three years.

Mr. Lugo was found not guilty, why don't you post that?
They are always found Not Guilty! That does not mean they are not
