@Copwatchtv obtained dash and body camera footage from Loving Police Department and Eddy County Sheriff office of an incident that happened on August 26th, 2021. Loving Police Chief Frank Methola noticed suspect Cody Hill speeding past him and weaving in and out of traffic. Methola pulled him over and Hill argued the legitimacy of the stop. Eddy County Sheriff deputies separated the parties. The Sheriff office found that Hill was under the influence and was driving erratically via viewing the dash cam footage. Hill was let go because Methola was not cross commissioned by Eddy County Sheriff Mark Cage. The Fifth Judicial District launched it's own investigation and charged Methola with impersonating a police officer. 00:00 Start 00:14 Traffic Stop Starts 00:51 Sheriff Deputy Shows Up 05:38 Police Chief Explains Stop 06:37 Hill Explains His Side 22:57 Case Update
