LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Indiana State Police spent Friday executing six new search warrants related to embattled former Clark County Sheriff Jamey Noel.
ISP Capt. Ron Galaviz tells WDRB that the search warrants were for each of the New Chapel Fire Department fire stations including its headquarters. There is no word on what led investigators to file for the warrants.
In addition to serving as Clark County Sheriff, Noel also led the Utica Volunteer Fire Department.
Earlier this week, WDRB uncovered court documents that show Noel allegedly charged hundreds of thousand of dollars on a Utica Fire Department credit card.
Noel is also accused of using fire department funds to pay for child support, according to court documents.
ISP continues to investigate Noel on corruption and fraud charges. He has been charged with 15 felonies related to fraud, theft, misconduct and public corruption.
Capt. Galaviz said one unrelated arrest was made during the execution of the search warrants on Friday. He said a person was arrested for possession of meth. He gave no additional details.
