King City is currently seeking a permanent and interim police chief. Chief Dennis Hegwood took the position in March following the arrests of several officers last year. His retirement benefits allowed him to work only 960 hours. A list of applicants is currently being reviewed by a recruitment firm, which will then be turned over to the city’s selection committee. Meanwhile, the city has contacted Greenfield’s police chief Adele Frese, to see if she can split time between both departments.
