OROVILLE, Calif. - The Oroville community is reacting after former Police Chief Joe Deal was terminated from his position on Tuesday.
Action News Now reached out to Deal, he did not want to go on camera but put out a statement saying: As the Public Safety Director I was an “at will” contract employee. The City Council voted to terminate my contract without cause, which was an option contained within my contract. The Council chose to go a different direction with their Public Safety Director. I would like to thank the city and the council for the opportunity to lead the Department for almost 2 years and I’d also like to thank the community for their support in the role.
