Chicago police Superintendent David Brown will be resigning his position on March 16, nearly three years after he took over the position as the city’s top cop.
First Deputy Eric Carter will serve as interim superintendent until a permanent replacement is sworn into office.
In a statement, Brown said he’ll be returning to Texas, where he’s accepted a position as chief operating officer of the personal injury law firm Loncar Lyon Jenkins. He said he made the decision to allow either Vallas or Johnson to “begin the process as soon as possible to hire the next superintendent.”
Lightfoot in her statement lauded Brown’s leadership, pointing to record numbers of illegal gun recoveries, consent decree progress and an increase in the number of women promoted to senior leadership positions.
