A spokesman for the department would only say that there were four separate unrelated incidents and denied any conspiracy, adding the incidents — as yet undisclosed — were not heinous.

The official said it hasn't even been proven yet that the actual incidents even happened.

He also noted that there have been no claims or lawsuits have been filed against the city.
