Chapel Hill Police Capt. Leo Vereen was promoted to assistant chief of the Chapel Hill Police Department last week, one of many promotions given in the department in order to enhance community-policing efforts.
Lt. Chuck Quinlan was promoted to captain, Sgt. Jason McIntyre was promoted to lieutenant and Investigator Celisa Lehew was promoted to sergeant.
“These promotions will help us to continue our focus on community-oriented policing,” Chief Chris Blue said. “Our department’s emerging leaders are committed to improving our connections with residents.”
