The town of Pilot Mountain has officially fired three police officers after concluding its weeks-long investigation into departmental corruption. Officials at a press conference Wednesday said the officers were involved in a years-long scheme to defraud the town and a local nonprofit organization. Town officials said the investigation, which was completed by an outside consulting group, found evidence of fraud dating back to 2018. Ian Redman, a spokesperson for the town, explained the allegations center on how the department handled off-duty work at car shows.
