(Lincoln, NE) -- A Lincoln Police Officer has his law enforcement authority removed as a result of a domestic related investigation.
The Lincoln Police Department says on Tuesday, they were made aware of two Domestic Abuse Protections orders and one Harassment Order issued against Lincoln Police Officer Wayne ‘Jarvis’ Wallage, who has been with the department for seven months. LPD says the orders prohibit him from possessing a firearm. Officer Wallage was immediately removed from service. LPD says he will not be able to act in any official law enforcement capacity.
The Lincoln Police Department says officers have been called to the Wallage residence twice in the recent past on domestic related issues. Officer Wallage has not been cited in either investigation. The investigations are still ongoing. LPD says they have initiated an internal investigation into the matter.
The Department says they take all allegations of misconduct seriously, "Especially those involving domestic partners."
