Omaha Police officer cited amid ongoing internal investigation

(Omaha, NE) -- An Omaha Police officer is cited amid an ongoing internal investigation.

On Friday, the Omaha Police Department announced that Officer William Klees had been cited for criminal mischief. Klees has been under investigation since last weekend when a woman claimed that he had been repeatedly vandalizing her vehicle when he was off-duty. The woman claims to live in the same apartment building as Klees, and that on numerous occasion he has dumped trash on her vehicle. Last Sunday, the woman took a video that she says shows Klees vandalizing her car, with her then confronting him afterward.

OPD says Klees is scheduled to be interviewed on Monday by the department’s internal affairs unit. He has been placed on paid administrative leave during the investigation.
