1Opinion of the Court

SMITH, Judge.

Louis Turano appeals from the July 17, 1992 order of the Court of Common Pleas of Lackawanna County granting the motions for summary judgment filed by the Borough of Jermyn (Borough), the Police Department of the Borough, and James M. Reilly, a police officer for the Borough (collectively Appellees). The sole issue Turano raises for review is whether the trial court, in addressing Turano’s claim against Appellees for malicious prosecution, erred in finding that Officer Reilly had probable cause to initiate and pursue charges against Turano.
