A high school soccer coach in Storrs, Connecticut, is under police investigation.

State police said they started investigating Jeff Sirois after officials from E.O. Smith High School contacted them about an issue concerning the coach.

No additional information has been released on the nature of the investigation, but police said they have not made an arrest.

Neither the school nor Sirois have commented on the investigation and the status of Sirois' employment with the school is not clear. He is not listed on the staff and faculty directory on the school Web site.

NBC Connecticut spoke with Sirois' wife, who confirmed that her husband is under investigation, and said it's "inappropriate," but added that she could not talk specifically about it.

She also would not comment on her husband's employment with the school, but said soccer is his life and that he loves coaching at the high school and for a soccer club.
