Police chief and entire department resign in Geary, Oklahoma
The police chief and all three officers of Geary, Oklahoma's police department have resigned, along with two city council members. The chief, Alicia Ford, cited the decision as difficult but did not provide specific reasons. The city has appointed an interim police chief, JJ Stitt, who plans to recruit additional officers. The local sheriff's offices will assist with patrolling in the meantime. Council member Glen Coleman expressed concerns about communication issues within the city administration. The resignations follow a similar incident in Goodhue, Minnesota, where an entire police department resigned over pay issues.
