RACINE -- A Racine police investigator has found himself on the other side of the law. No criminal charges have been filed at this time, but the Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office did confirm the Racine police investigator is now at the center of his own investigation in Milwaukee County.
Racine police told FOX6 News one of the department's investigators has been placed on paid administrative leave.
In a statement, Racine City Attorney Scott Letteney said:
"The City of Racine is aware that Investigator Todd Morschhauser is alleged to have committed unlawful acts in the City of Milwaukee."

"We are reviewing a matter involving this individual. A decision will not be finalized in this case until next week at the earliest."
