SEYMOUR — A Seymour Police Department officer is under investigation over allegations of ghost employment and official misconduct.

The Seymour Police Department says Captain Carl Lamb is on paid administrative leave while Indiana State Police conduct their investigation.

The department says an internal investigation will follow the conclusion of the state police investigation.

Indiana State Police say they are investigating a situation that was turned over to them from the Seymour Police Department, but they don't name the suspects involved in their investigation until charges are filed. They also say it is still early in that investigation and they do not expect to have any information available until that is complete.
