Thompson is Flomaton's police chief

Flomaton Council votes 5-1 to name new police chief

Flomaton Police Captain Chance Thompson was approved as Flomaton's new police chief on a 5-1 vote during a council meeting that began a 4 p.m. Wednesday. Councilman Buster Crapps issued the only 'no' vote. Prior to Mayor Dewey Bondurant Jr., asking for a motion to accept his recommendation to name Thompson as the new chief, the council accepted the resignation of Chief Bryan Davis. Davis has accepted a new position with another law enforcement agency and will step down effective Oct. 4. See more in next week's Tri-City Ledger.
