OSWEGO, IL — An elected official in Oswego Township is under investigation for possibly misusing resources, according to officials at the Kendall County Sheriff's Office.

Detectives are in the early stages of investigating the allegations against an official who works in Oswego Township or the Oswego Township road district, according to a news release. A "concerned community member" filed a complaint with the sheriff's office on Sept. 13, authorities said.

"Our main concern right now is to conduct a professional and thorough investigation into these allegations, following all leads wherever they take us," investigators said in the release.
