Via Knuckledraggin' My Life Away

Figures.

Carol Stream Police Sgt. Bryan Pece, who faces charges of driving under the influence after an off-duty traffic accident last May 5 that left him unable to return to work, has been awarded non-duty related disability leave.

The Carol Stream Police Pension Fund Board voted unanimously Thursday to award monthly disability payments of $4,507.17 to Pece. Pece applied for the disability leave in May, the day after authorities said he was drunk when his vehicle rear-ended an SUV at the intersection of Army Trail and County Farm roads in Hanover Park.
