Amarillo PD Leadership Shake-Up | Amarillo News

Amarillo PD just shook things up with major leadership moves: veteran Captain Erick Bohannon, with 34 years of experience across every division—including homicide—steps into the new role of assistant chief. Alongside him, Chief Hover introduces Haley McGee as Police Business Services Manager, handling everything from records to grants and budget. Both promotions follow a grueling eight-hour selection process and come after the retirement of the previous assistant chief. Bohannon made history by re-taking his original oath during his promotion, honoring his long service. Meanwhile, three corporals were promoted to sergeant, chosen for their alignment with Chief Hover’s vision—and his focus on officer wellness, including a grant bid for mental health support. This reshuffle signals a deeper commitment to strengthening APD from within. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
