Larry Snelling, the Chicago Police Department’s 54-year-old counterterrorism chief, is Mayor Brandon Johnson’s choice to be the city’s new top cop.
Determined to improve rock-bottom police morale, Johnson chose the 29-year department veteran he apparently believes is best equipped to do just that over two other finalists.
In a statement posted on social media, Johnson said his selection of Snelling marks “a new chapter in our journey to create a better, stronger and safer Chicago.”
