Millions of Texans have enjoyed the snowfall we've received this month.
One video of police officers in Houston enjoying the winter wonderland, however, have rubbed some residents the wrong way.
The video shows officers in their vehicle doing doughnuts in a parking lot covered in snow, which has led some to call out a blatant display of hypocrisy seemingly demonstrated by the police.
According to Chron, some of the harshest critiques say, "Fire them! I do that I go to jail." Another person added, "Waste, fraud, and abuse. They'd arrest someone for this. Fire them."
Some residents, though, countered the critics and said that "Cops deserve to have fun with impunity."
The Houston Police Department said in a statement about the video:
"The Houston Police Department is aware of two videos circulating on social media showing marked patrol units driving in the snow in parking lots. We take this matter seriously and are currently reviewing the incidents. Once additional facts are gathered, appropriate steps will be taken to address the situation internally."
