Chief of police - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Chief of Police is the title typically given to the head of a police department, particularly in the United States and Canada. In contrast to a sheriff, who is generally elected by the voters of a county, chiefs of police usually are municipal employees who owe their allegiance to a city. The usual compromise is one which allows the chief of police to exercise law enforcement jursidiction and to give the sheriff and his or her deputies authority over jails and the serving of civil papers; an alternative and lesser-used solution is to make the office of sheriff a purely ceremonial one. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Chief_of_police   (441 words)
