A former police helicopter officer is reportedly being questioned following claims he filmed a sunbathing woman from his aircraft.

Adrian Pogmore, of Rotherham, was sacked by South Yorkshire Police after claims that he was allegedly filming couples ‘dogging’ while on helicopter duty.

Now, The Sun reports that Pogmore, 49, is facing a potential jail term after footage of a ‘former Page Three model’ was allegedly found at his home.

‘A criminal inquiry is underway and interviews have been carried out under caution,’ a force spokesman told MailOnline.

Pogmore, who has two children, allegedly used the helicopter’s thermal imaging camera, which the South Yorkshire Police website says is ‘among the best in the world.’

‘It is used to search open areas, both rural and urban, not only to trace offenders but to locate missing persons resulting in numerous lives being saved,’ it reads.
