He said someone asked his unit to look into a member of the police department. The public integrity unit handles complaints filed against people in public office.
"There's some concern about an officer in the police department, and we're having a looksee," he said.
Vanella would not comment on the details of the complaint but said his department is only conducting a preliminary investigation in order to determine whether to proceed with a full investigation.
Neither John Rader, spokesman for the city, nor Det. Andrew Espinoza Jr., Barstow Police Officer Association President, were aware of the details of the Public Integrity Unit's actions.
Rader released this statement in an e-mail: "We are not aware of the details of this referral to the Public Integrity Unit; however, the Barstow Police Department takes its integrity very seriously and will participate in the process if and when requested to do so."
Espinoza said he did not know whether the preliminary investigation is related to the recent resignation of four Barstow police officers last week.
