The Dispatch
Deputy Police Chief Robby Rummage was named chief of the Lexington Police on Wednesday by Lexington City Manager Terra Greene.
“I am very humbled, grateful, and excited to be the new chief of police of this community. I am at this point in my career because a lot of people have invested in me, including former chiefs, coworkers, and my family. Over the years, they saw things in me I didn’t see at the time and I really appreciate their support,” said Rummage.
The current police chief, Mark Sink, announced his retirement earlier this month, which will take effect on Feb. 28. Rummage has served as second-in-command at the Lexington Police Department since 2015 and will assume his new role on March 1.
