The FBI on Friday afternoon raided former City Manager Harry Walker's office at City Hall talking numerous documents, according to multiple sources.

The ChesterCountyReporter.com has further learned that the FBI, accompanied by detectives from District Attorney Joe Carroll's office, made an electronic copy of all the files on Walker's computer.

Neither council President Ed Simpson nor Walker could be reached for comment.

Walker was placed on administrative leave by a 5 to 2 vote shortly after the new council was sworn in at last Monday's council meeting. The two council members voting against the motion were Jarrell Brazzle and Karen Jorgenson.

But, according to sources, shortly after the meeting two council members visited Walker at his home and presented him with a letter informing him he was to be fired within the next five days.

Simpson refused to comment on the reported firing. "This is a personnel issue and I refuse to comment," he said when contacted at his home prior to the FBI revelation.

The ChesterCountyReporter.com has also learned that the terminaiton letter informed Walker he was not permitted access to his office nor his computer.

Within minutes of the new council being sworn in last Monday night they voted to dismiss city Solicitor Andrew Lehr and put Walker on administrative leave. John Carnes was appointed the new solicitor. Carnes served as city solicitor during the eight years the Paul Janssen served as city manager. Assistant City Manger Kirby Hudson is now serving as interim city manager.
