MUNCIE, Ind. — Two city employees have been suspended with pay pending resolution of a financial-related investigation.
A Wednesday press release issued by Mayor Dan Ridenour’s administration did not identify the employees by name or specify what department they worked for.
“During routine payment processing within the city controller’s office, inconsistences with one department’s accounting were discovered,” the release said.
City officials have asked Indiana State Police to investigate the matter.
