Tempe Police will have a new, interim police chief in February, after their current chief steps down for a job with the DPS.
Glover, according to the Associated Press, will be the first Black person to head the DPS. He joined the Tempe Police Department in 1999 and retired as a commander in February 2020, before returning eight months later as chief of police, initially on an interim basis.
As for Tempe's new police chief, officials say Montenegro is a 22-year veteran of Tempe Police. She will begin her interim role on Feb. 14, until a permanent police chief is chosen. Officials say they are conducting a national search for a new chief, and a first review of applications will take place, starting on Feb. 20.
"Police employees and community members will be able to meet and ask questions of the candidates at forums in March," read a portion of the statement.
