Topless selfie cop Nidia Garcia QUITS her job to avoid being sacked for racy photos… as modelling career looks set to take off
Nidia Garcia had been suspended pending an investigation into the pictures
A FEMALE cop who found internet fame by posing topless in her patrol car has sensationally quit her job to avoid getting the sack.
Mexican police in Escobedo confirmed that officer Nidia Garcia had been suspended while they investigated the pictures showing her in her uniform flashing her breasts as she cuddles up to a rifle.
But before the investigation was completed, Garcia is said to have voluntarily handed in her notice - perhaps to take advantage of hundreds of modelling offers she has received since her racy photos went viral.
Local authorities said that as soon as Garcia resigned, the administrative process against her ended.
In a Facebook confession after the photo went viral, Nidia had admitted to posing for the snap - but denied uploading it onto social media.
"I apologise to the Proximity Justice Secretariat [local police force] and moreover to the city of Escobedo for this immoral act that I have committed,”she wrote.
"Since I would be incapable of uploading a photo like this, I am outraged by the great damage this publication brings to my two daughters, my husband, parents, brothers and entire family.
"I hereby admit my great fault in posing for the picture, and I ask for this topic to be left aside.
In the wake of the confession however, other pictures of her - including topless snaps - started to be widely shared on social media.
Several men's magazines and local businessmen even showed an interest in giving her a modelling contract, saying that they want to capitalise on her instant popularity.
Local entrepreneur Gerardo Herrera is one of those who believes Nidia’s instant fame should be exploited.
He said she should pose for "a professional photo session that plays with the imagination of her fans".
