Rantoul Village Administrator Scott Eisenhauer has been placed on leave after he was arrested for domestic battery Monday. Eisenhauer is the former Mayor of Danville, where he was elected Mayor four times.
Channel 3 news reports Mayor Charles Smith released a statement that says he was notified of a domestic incident involving Eisenhauer that occurred at his home in Rantoul. Rantoul Police responded but handed the investigation over to the Champaign County Sheriff’s Office. That investigation led to Eisenhauer’s arrest for domestic battery and interfering with the report of domestic violence.
The statement says Eisenhauer was immediately placed on administrative leave, where he will remain pending the outcome of an administrative hearing and the conclusion of his criminal charges.
