NEW ORLEANS (CNN) -- Four New Orleans police officers have been suspended and one has been reassigned over allegations of looting in the chaos after Hurricane Katrina, acting Police Superintendent Warren Riley said Thursday.
The city's police department is investigating reports that at least 12 police officers may have gone on a looting spree in the days after the storm hit.
The probe began after police officials reviewed videos from news reports, Riley said, without elaborating.
