HORTONVILLE, WI (WTAQ) – State officials are now handling the investigation into Hortonville Police records that allegedly went missing.
The Division of Criminal Investigation is handling the search for allegedly missing personnel files, which was started by recently-resigned Hortonville Police Chief Michael Sullivan.
The village board decided to transfer the search to state authorities, after Sullivan recommended it be handled by the Black Creek Police Department.
Village officials say they are not aware of any wrongdoing tied to the matter.
Sullivan resigned last week to take a patrol officer position in Wrightstown.
He was allowed to keep his job earlier this year despite being disciplined for violating department policies and having additional complaints filed against him.
