A Missouri State Highway Patrol division is investigating allegations of theft and/or fraud by an elected official in Moniteau County.

The Moniteau County Sheriff's Office made the request on Jan. 28, according to MSHP Sgt. Brad Germann. The Division of Drug and Crime Control is leading the special investigation, Germann said.

No other details will be immediately released "to maintain the integrity of the investigation," Germann wrote in an email.
