Bridgeville council last night voted 5-0 to appoint officer Chad King as the borough's new police chief.
Mayor Don Dolde, who swore in Mr. King, said the search was fair and equitable, and a sense of unity kept the department together during the long search for a successor to former police chief Edward Bogats Jr.
Mr. Bogats resigned in May, citing health reasons. He was hired as chief in Bridgeville after serving 20 years in Carnegie.
Mr. Chief King said the decision to promote from within the department showed confidence in the officers.
