Muncie Mayor Dennis Tyler arrested by FBI in corruption probe

Dennis Tyler, the mayor of Muncie, was arrested by the FBI Monday morning at his home, as part of a three-year investigation into the city for public corruption.

In that time, six public officials have been indicted. U.S. Attorney Josh Minkler says Tyler faces one count of theft of government funds after he accepted $5000 from Tracy Barton, Muncie’s superintendent of sewer and maintenance, in exchange for awarding contracts to Barton’s business.

If convicted, Mayor Tyler could face up to 10 years in prison and a fine of $250,000.
