The Cleveland Police Department suspended another officer Thursday night.
Edwin Millan was placed on paid administrative leave, according to Evie West, spokeswoman for the department.
Millan is the fourth Cleveland police officer to be placed on administrative leave in the past month, and his suspension comes in the wake of years of scandals within the department.
Tenth Judicial District Attorney Steve Crump told the Times Free Press on Friday that the Tennessee Highway Patrol, the Bradley County Sheriff's Office and Georgia authorities have been investigating an incident involving Millan since May.
"That investigation is complete and our office is reviewing the findings contained within the investigative file," Crump said. "...The investigation relates to the reported theft and burning of [Millan's] automobile."
According to an incident report from the Murray County Sheriff's Office, a white 2011 Chrysler 300 was found on fire around 11 p.m. on May 16 near the Georgia and Tennessee state line on Highway 225.
A Murray County deputy sent to the scene noticed a red gas can in the passenger side floorboard, and reported that it appeared someone had set the car on fire. He searched the area and could not locate any suspect, according to the report.
The tags on the car were traced back to Millan as the owner, the report states.
The next morning, Millan reported to the Cleveland Police Department that his car had been stolen. He said that sometime during the night it was taken from the street outside his apartment on Inman Street, according to the incident report.
Millan told police his car was valued at $25,000, and he did "not know who may have taken his vehicle."
The City of Cleveland is in the process of hiring a new police chief, after the previous chief retired in May following an internal affairs investigation that found he lied about the relationship he had with Cindy Griggs, a subordinate's wife.
