A Goodyear police officer was placed on administrative leave after investigators found that he may have improperly used an automated license plate reader, according to an Aug. 11 statement released by the Goodyear Police Department.
The statement comes a day after an Apache Junction police officer resigned for misusing his department's Flock Automated License Plate Reader technology.
The Goodyear officer was placed on administrative leave on July 22 after investigators at the Goodyear Police Department audited their Flock system activity on July 21, according to the statement.
During their audit, investigators found that there was a potential criminal violation, according to the department's statement.
The Glendale Police Department was overseeing
the criminal investigation.
