    Stamford (WTNH) - Some police officers in Stamford say their police headquarters is infested by bugs and its making some officers sick.

    The Stamford police union says at least ten officers have been bitten by bugs inside the 50-year-old headquarters building.

    They claim three officers and one civilian officer have tested positive for Lyme Disease.

    The union says the bugs infestation came from birds roosting on the outside of the building.

    The union says the city did bring in an exterminator but has refused to bring a doctor in to test officers for health problems.
