GARY, IN - A City of Gary employee reportedly was fired July 30 after he was recently caught driving a city-owned vehicle in Illinois, according to the Post Tribune.

The decision to fire the employee resulted from a July 27 hearing.

The employee had been suspended without pay as of July 10, more than a week after the Post-Tribune published photographs taken by a Chicago resident of a white Jeep bearing Gary's city logo being driven in Illinois.

City records indicate Jeeps have been assigned to workers in the environmental affairs, traffic, public works, building, general services and fire departments, reported the Post.
