Pa. governor 'concerned' by son-in-law allegations

By The Associated Press

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett says he's concerned to hear reports about an investigation of his son-in-law, a Philadelphia narcotics police officer.

Several media outlets citing anonymous sources are reporting that Corbett's son-in-law is under investigation by the FBI and police Internal Affairs.

Corbett said: "I was surprised and concerned to learn about the allegations regarding my son-in-law Gerold Gibson. Susan and I continue to give our family our love and support."

The Philadelphia Police Department said Thursday an officer was placed on administration leave as a result of an investigation but gave no details. The officer's name wasn't released because he was not arrested or charged with a crime.

Calls by The Associated Press to investigators were either not returned or officials were unable to confirm the reports.
