There has been a call from local government officials for an investigation into the traffic stop that officially led to the dismissal of former New Castle County Chief Administrator David Grimaldi.
The Elsmere town Council and New Castle County Council member Lisa Diller want a probe by state Attorney General Matt Denn.
Diller is planning on co-sponsoring a measure that calls for an independent investigation into the dismissal by New Castle County Executive Tom Gordon.
In addition, the Elsmere Town Council held a special meeting last night that also wanted an independent probe.
Grimaldi was stopped in Elsmere with a suspended driver’s license.
Gordon claims that Grimaldi tried to influence the outcome of the stop while Grimaldi claims that the police chief offered to "yank the ticket".
