Say it ain’t so!
Christopher Kohrs, also known as the “Hot Cop of Castro,” was arrested in San Francisco over the holiday weekend after allegedly plowing over two pedestrians at 2:20 a.m. Sunday then fleeing the scene.

Officers arrived at the location of the crime within minutes, where they learned the pedestrians, two men in their 40s, had been struck while crossing the street and the car, an orange Dodge Charger, sped off.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Both men were taken to the hospital with serious but not life threatening injuries, Sgt. Michael Andraychak told press.
Kohrs, who was off duty at the time, ditched his vehicle a few blocks away then fled the area on foot. His colleagues eventually tracked him down, however, and he was booked on two felony charges of hit-and-run.
Police are not saying whether alcohol or drugs were a factor in the incident. They are also not releasing Kohrs’ mugshot.

Kohrs became an internet superstar in 2014 when photos of him patrolling the streets of San Francisco began circulating on social media. A Facebook fan page for the “Hot Cop of Castro” has over 50,000 followers. It has since been bombarded with a slew of negative comments.
“He hits two pedestrians then jumps out of his own vehicle and runs!! Really!!??” one person wrote. “He may be cute but he’s not too bright.”
“People like this,” another person said, “such a disgrace.”
“Just another dirty cops thinking he is above the law,” someone else wrote. “Enjoy lock up you felon.”

This is why we can’t have nice things…

Likely DWI. Why else would he book it rather than waiting for his cop buddies to arrive?

He’s cute. Give him a pass.

Being given a badge and a position of authority is a great responsibility. That responsibility needs to be not only earned, but maintained. If a cop doesn’t respect the law he is sworn to uphold, and cannot justify his actions, he has no right to wear the uniform.
What is sad is that this guy was a posterboy for the SFPD. At a time when all over the world, police are coming under fire (figuratively and literally) more than ever, and need public support, this doofus messes things up, not just for himself, but also his colleagues.
He’s going to get fired, and he’s ruined his life for himself & his family. Expect to see him modelling crappy underwear, getting bit parts in tacky soap operas, or hiring out his services as an escort any time soon.

Crooked cops are doing a cover up on one of their buddies.
BJ McFrisky
His life is basically over. Criminal conviction, millions in lawsuits.
Let’s hope Bubba and Marcellus also think he’s hot when they’re all alone in a jail cell. They’ll surely turn his brown eye blue.
Chris Tan
Since he is going to lose his job, I would suggest that he becomes a gay porn star when he is out from prison.
redcarpet30
Well so much for hoping there are at least a few good cops out there.

@billjones:
That’s the problem. Way too many gay men think that attractive=good personality, character, good worker and etc. Personally, I never understood the hype behind him where folks were acting he was some heroic figure when he didn’t do anything noteworthy. Being attractive doesn’t make you a good cop or good person. I think situations like these are much needed reality checks that a lot of gay men need. Don’t judge a book by its cover.

@@billjones…..really? What a terrible comment to make.

Serve and protect my ass. What a low life.

So much for the copaganda that Queerty tried to shovel down our throats months ago. All cops are corrupt, even the attractive ones and the ones who booty grind for attention.
Captain Obvious
This is why people… especially on the internet need to stop being so damned shallow. The narcissism that blew up his head probably made him believe he just couldn’t possibly stick around and take accountability because he’s so “famous”.
That said there are way too many cops like this and if people would take “race” out of the scenario we’d probably have them off the streets a lot faster before they can do things like this to innocent people.
Stop focusing on looks already.
Captain Obvious
Wow if you check that stupid facebook page you also see him defending the Baltimore shooting of an unarmed black man. I hope he enjoys being on the other side of the scenario in prison now considering he’s a REAL CRIMINAL. Have fun sucking on all that meat in lock up, gurl.

@billjones: Trolling?

@KM201:
Nope. Wrong.
Don’t make the mistake of tarring everyone with the same brush. Most cops are honest people, just doing a job, trying to bring home a pay packet, and keeping a clean nose for their pension. Its not an easy job. It’s definitely thankless, and the majority of the population either take them for granted, or just have problems with authority figures.
The problem wasn’t so much that he made a mistake. It was that he acted without integrity.
Captain Obvious
@trell: It would help if those “authority figures” had more than a high school education and didn’t act like they were above the rest of us.
Sure there are good cops but you’re making it sound like the majority are when that is definitely not the case. There are police officers who have flat out said as much and it’s up to us as citizens to make that change come about.
Police have been a problem for far too long and it wasn’t until video cameras became readily available and easy to conceal that the truth could finally come out.

@trell: Nope. Wrong.
Institutionally, cops are corrupt and/or evil. They are constantly targeting the poor for petty offenses, violating the laws they claim to uphold, using tickets as a means of city revenue raising at the expense of the middle class and getting away with violence and murder of minorities and women. Those that are supposedly “good” are silent while pieces of shit like Daniel Pantaleo get off for murder. The thin blue line is apathetic and apathy is complacency, hence cops are unaccountable and are all corrupt for supporting this system. You aren’t going to change my mind. Facts speak for themselves.
KM201
@Captain Obvious: Thank you. It’s sad that you had to be the one that said something “Captain Obvious” to our clueless trell troll here. 😉
Giancarlo85
He neglected his duties and responsibilities… engaging in hit and run? Well that should be the end of his career.
Brian K Combs
If anything I would have guessed he woul rear end someone

Why are they not releasing his mugshot? Even David Bowie’s mugshot was released.

@KM201:
Trell troll? How am I a troll?
Just cos I don’t agree with you, doesn’t mean I’m posting statements to be intentionally provocative. Read my first post. I’m equally disgusted about this guy’s behaviour.
As for your, and Captain Obvious’ opinions about the police, do you have any proof to back up your claims that all cops are institutionally corrupt/evil? And no, im not talking about a handful of short edited clips on Youtube purporting to be police brutality.
I suggest you try walking a mile in a police officer’s boots before making snap judgements like you’ve been making.

This story is such a colossal bummer.
seaguy
We all make mistakes but to make the mistake of leaving the scene of an accident that you caused when you are an officer of the law is just not right. At least he can give modeling a try once he is fired from the force, and if worse comes to worse I am sure he can make money doing gay porn. Unless he is not that big down there. lol
Giandorko86
Hopefully he just gets a slap on the wrist. I’m sure he didn’t mean it and nobody died. Sweep it under the rug he’s hot cop of Castro.

To the Captain Obviouses and KM201s of the world who are quick to judge all police officers as corrupt and evil.

Again, I say to those who are quick to discredit every police officer due to the actions of a few bad apples….walk a mile in their shoes before you are quick to judge….if you dare!
