WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - A sign outside of the West Palm Beach Police Department might look official, but there's a problem.

It's not spelled correctly.

The sign says "Offical West Palm Beach Police Parking Only." However, a second 'i' is missing from the word official.

YouReporter Terri took a photo to document the error.

She claims she has repeatedly called the city and police department about the mistake. It so far hasn't been fixed and she thinks that is an embarrassment.

The sign is in front of the police department on Rosemary Avenue in downtown West Palm Beach.
