The Denver City Council approved the appointment of Ron Thomas as the new Denver Police Department chief at Monday’s meeting about a month and a half after the former chief announced his retirement.
DENVER —
Thomas has worked for the Denver Police Department since 1989 after serving as a cadet with the Department of Safety. He worked his way up through the department working in most of its divisions, including commanding districts 2 and 5, as well as the DPD Internal Affairs Division.
