Acting Sierra Vista Police Chief Adam Thrasher was named as the department’s permanent chief.
Thrasher joined the department in 1996 and was named acting police chief Oct. 1 after then-Chief Tom Alinen announced his retirement, the City of Sierra Vista said in a news release Monday.
“It’s thrilling to be in a position to make a meaningful impact in the community where I grew up and to take command of a department that helped me become who I am today,” Thrasher said in the news release.
