One day after police investigators served a search warrant on the Harrisonburg Treasurer's Office, citizens were able to get back in Wednesday.

The office on South Main Street closed around 10 a.m. Tuesday when police investigators searched the office and removed boxes and filing cabinets.

The office is currently headed by Treasurer Rebecca Neal, but workers continued to decline comment Wednesday.

A police vehicle was also seen outside of Neal's home on Chestnut Drive in Harrisonburg Tuesday.

Harrisonburg Police Spokesman Lt. Kurt Boshart said the investigation has been on-going for months.

He adds, "We want to make sure that we're handling it at the utmost proper manner. So, in order to do that it's going to be real important at this point in the investigation that we make sure that we're only releasing information that's factual information ."

It's bad enough that the City Council continues to spend our taxes bailing out the Black Run Greenway, Boys and Girls Club, and ARC but now we have embezzlement within the actual City offices. Maybe it's time to oust the Council and City Management and run the City like a business and not government!!
