FORT WORTH, Texas — A Fort Worth firefighter who was fired last year after failing a random drug test won his job back — only to lose it again.
Leslie A. McConnell, 42, was indefinitely suspended for a second time on June 26 for allegedly providing a false or tampered-with urine sample during a drug test he was required to pass before resuming his career as a firefighter, according to a letter filed with the Civil Service Commission.
McConnell, who has appealed the firing, did not return a message seeking comment. He had been with the fire department since August 1999 when he was first fired in November. A letter filed with the Civil Service Commission at that time stated McConnell had tested positive for methamphetamine during a random drug test.
