From CBS 3, in Philadelphia, PA, August 7, 2009.

“CBS 3 has learned a Philadelphia Police officer is under investigation after attempting to perform a background check on the President of the United States.

Police said an officer with the 18th District did a search on President Barack Obama from his patrol car computer, which is normally used to provide instant background information on suspects.

The search was immediately flagged and an investigation was launched. Officials said no personal information of the President was released.

The officer currently remains on duty, but could face disciplinary action pending the outcome of the investigation.”
