    MILWAUKEE (WISN) — A Milwaukee Department of Public Works employee is on leave as the department investigates a video posted to social media containing sexual acts adjacent to a city-owned department vehicle.

The video, which was posted to social media on Sept. 7 and viewed thousands of times, shows what appears to be a man and woman engaging in multiple sexual acts.

The proximity to a public works vehicle prompted an investigation into the contents of the video.

“We are aware of the video. The content is alarming, and this incident is currently under investigation. We take this matter very seriously. The employee has been placed on leave during this process,” a public works spokesperson said in an emailed statement.

The spokesperson could not provide additional details, including whether Milwaukee Police are also investigating.

It is also unclear when the video was recorded. It is also unclear if either person in the video is directly connected to the public works department.

Despite the video containing sexual acts, it had not been removed by the time this story was published.
