Officials at

the U.S. Postal Service confirmed this week that an employee at the Senoia

Post Office is under investigation.

Postal service

spokesman Michael Miles said Wednesday he could not reveal the details

of the investigation until the Postal Investigation System completes its

inquiry.

But Miles did

say the investigation focuses on "improprieties" of a current

employee at the post office.

The employee

has been placed off duty until the investigation is completed, he added.

Miles became

aware of the investigation last Thursday, and said officials from the

Postal Investigation System conducted interviews in Senoia this week.

He expects

the investigation to conclude late this week or early next week and will

be able to release more details then, he added
