LA PORTE COUNTY, Ind. -
A Michigan City Police officer who has been on administrative leave following his arrest was found deceased.
A local attorney contacted La Porte County Sheriff's deputies Saturday around 1 p.m. because family members were concerned for 37-year-old Rob Grant's well being. They were unable to contact him by phone.
Grant was arrested on July 28th for two counts of Official Misconduct and Possession of a Legend Drug.
La Porte County officials searched the area of County Road 300 north near County Road 400 west.
Officials located Grant's car in the area and found him deceased inside the vehicle.
Detectives conducted a death investigation at the scene and have ruled out foul play in his death.
