The undercover drug investigators face disciplinary action after a security camera filmed them playing the video game while they raided a convicted drug dealer’s home in Polk County, Florida, the Associated Press reports.
The officers were executing a search warrant but, within minutes of entering the home in March, several officers discovered the Nintendo game and started playing it.
Video footage shows one officer continuously stopping her work to play the game, and jumping up and down in celebration after hitting two strikes in a row.
The officers were not aware a security camera on the home owner’s computer was filming their every move during the nine-hour raid.
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said the incident would not invalidate the search, but called it an embarrassment.
“I’m not pleased that they played that Wii bowling game,” Mr Judd said, according to local news site www2.tbo.com.
"That is not appropriate conduct at a search warrant.
"But I am less pleased with the supervision that didn't walk in and say, turn that off. That's what supervision should have done."
Mr Judd said an internal investigation had been launched into the incident.
