Bloomington Police Department has officially announced the promotion of a seasoned officer, Damon Bitney, to the role of Deputy Chief after a notable 25-year tenure within the force. Elevated to this new rank in October of last year, Bitney is now positioned to further contribute to the department's mission and espouse its foundational core value of respect, a principle that seems all the more pivotal in these times of communal discord and calls for policing reform.
Bitney's quarter-century journey with the Bloomington Police intimately acquainted him with the community he serves, allowing him to deeply understand and to majorly influence the public safety landscape in the city, according to Bloomington Police Department, MN Facebook page.
