The NYPD cop suspended for being drunk on the job had a sobering morning on Friday — walking into his upstate house clutching a giant Dr Pepper cup.
Officer Richard Evans, 44, refused to comment outside the Newburgh home at about 9 a.m., hours after The Post reported that he was stripped of his gun and badge for being “unfit for duty” Thursday during his midnight-to-8-a.m. shift in The Bronx’s 52nd Precinct.
Evans had responded early Thursday to a report of a drunken dispute, and a civilian there accused the cop of being drunk as well.
Someone at the scene shot video of the allegedly drunken Evans and complained to 311, according to a law-enforcement source.
Adding insult to injury Thursday, a photo emerged of Evans passed out in a chair in the station-house locker room, his shirt pulled up to expose his beer belly.
