The Sand Springs Police Department confirmed the arrest of one of their own officers on Thursday.

Theodore “Ted” Cook was arrested and faces multiple counts of Unauthorized Use of a Credit Card and one count of Grand Larceny, according to police and jail records.

According to SSPD, Cook may have been involved in the use of a credit card that was supposed to be in police custody.

When the department became suspicious of Cook, SSPD said the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation was asked to take over the investigation.

Sand Springs police said Cook was placed on unpaid leave until the criminal case moves ahead. The department said if charges are approved, Cook will be fired.

“Today is a dark and sad day in the Sand Springs police department. One of our own was arrested for crimes that absolutely damage the trust we share with our community.” Deputy Chief Todd Enzbrenner said. “Our officer’s are devastated and feel betrayed but will continue to serve the citizens with their head held high. They are dedicated men and women and care deeply about their calling. While some will try and tarnish the years and years of honorable service to this community because of the actions of one. We will not let that deter us from continuing to serve our citizens with honor, fairness, and justice, keeping with the oath we all took.” I can’t recall any officers ever being arrested while working here in over 40 years.”

According to jail records, 24-year-old Theodore Cook lives in Sapulpa and was arrested by OSBI at 1 p.m. Thursday. He was booked into the Tulsa County Jail around 4 p.m.
