LAWRENCE (AP) – Two Lawrence police officers have been suspended after an FBI investigation into traffic tickets being fixed in exchange for University of Kansas basketball tickets.

The Lawrence Journal-World reports that City Manager David Corliss confirmed Thursday that the person whose traffic tickets were fixed is serving time in a federal prison related to a broader Kansas ticket scandal.

Seven university employees, including top business officials in the athletics department, were convicted in the thefts of more than 17,000 Jayhawk basketball tickets and at least 2,000 football tickets. The tickets were illegally sold to brokers and others, with the defendants pocketing the money.

Corliss referred questions to Police Chief Tarik Khatib in an email to The Associated Press. Khatib didn’t immediately return a phone call from the AP seeking comment.
