MOUNT VERNON (AP) — The FBI says 44-year-old Matthew Dailey, of Howard, misused his job with Mount Vernon police to traffic in narcotics, extort people and use a firearm in drug-trafficking activities.

Dailey was arrested on a criminal complaint containing those charges. Dailey has worked for the Mount Vernon police for about two decades.

Mount Vernon is about 40 miles northeast of Columbus.
