A former police chief in Indiana is accused of using his badge to buy police-issued guns and sell them privately, the Chicago Sun-Times reports.
The FBI and ATF are investigating, local police confirmed.
“We have been fully cooperating with federal agencies over the last month,” Acting Chief Tony Frencl said.
Police in early July leveled allegations against Police Chief Steven Sibbrell, saying he was responsible for a variety of misconduct, including watching pornography on his PD computer.
Other grievances included using foul language, conducing traffic stops in unmarked cars and sleeping in his office.
