Several veterans at the War Memorial Wednesday alerted NBC affiliate WTMJ about where the sheriff’s car was parked.

According to a statement from Sheriff Clarke’s office , Clarke asked a Captain to move the car upon arrival at the War Memorial, but that order was not followed.

Clarke says he wrote himself a ticket and paid the fine of $35. The sheriff has also ordered an internal investigation into the disobeyed order.
