In a letter, HPD confirmed 'an open investigation being conducted...of alleged improper police procedure by a police officer.'

One of the newly-promoted Houston police assistant chiefs is under investigation after property valued at $25,000 went missing from a police substation.

ABC13 obtained part of the Internal Affairs Division report that states Rodriguez asked a liaison with the City of Houston General Services Department if he could take the property because "he wanted to put them in his ditch at home." The City of Houston has a 7-page Asset Disposition Procedure for the disposal of property that is "excess, obsolete, worn or scrap."

Only after ABC13 requested records on the whereabouts of the discarded gates, was a police report filed.
