NJ Starbucks Worker Accused Of Spitting In Drinks Of Police Officers

A New Jersey Starbucks employee has been accused of spitting in the coffee of police officers.

Kevin Trejo, a 21-year-old from Westwood, faces a number of charges, including subjecting a law enforcement officer to contact with a bodily fluid, creating a hazardous or physically dangerous condition and knowingly tampering with a cup of coffee knowing it was ordered by a law enforcement officer.

It�s unclear how many officers may have had their drinks tampered with, but police said it �appears to be an isolated incident with this sole individual� at a Starbucks in Park Ridge.

�We believe it happened more than once, but we can prove it happened at least once on May 25,� Park Ridge Police Capt. Joseph Rampolla told NBC News.

Park Ridge Police Chief Joseph Madden told NJ.com that Trejo was �arrogant enough to be bragging about it� and that led police to question him.

  1. Let cool heads prevail. After all, this fine young man is a highly trained barista, and we don�t yet know if the �hero� police officer ordered �extra loogie� in his coffee. So let�s all calm down and await the results of the pending investigation. I find it very hard to believe anyone would treat a �hero� this way.

  2. Sadly we are all being sentenced to drink unhinged people’s saliva, that’s why I use a face screen in addition to mask.
