An English police officer who turned up for work with the hairstyle of rapper Eminem was sent home.
A spokeswoman for police in Sheffield said the officer bleached his hair for a stag party.
The spokeswoman quoted Superintendent Richard Wilson as saying the platinum blond Eminem-style cut was not appropriate for the
corporate image which police wished to portray.
The officer was back on duty after having cut his hair short.
