Interim chief will stay as Provo Police’s top cop, city officials announce

Provo city officials announced Tuesday that they’ve picked their next chief to lead the police department: Rich Ferguson, who has been the interim chief since March.

Mayor John Curtis announced in a blog post on Tuesday that after a six-month search, they’ve decided to name Ferguson as the city’s top cop.

“It would be hard to find someone more qualified to lead this department,” Curtis wrote. “Chief Ferguson is someone the community can expect to be very consistent and always conduct himself with the highest level of integrity.”
