Baltimore County's new police chief Robert McCullough

 McCullough
McCullough was named to lead the Baltimore County police department in early April 2023.

When Baltimore County Executive Johnny Olszewski, Jr. needed to replace Police Chief Melissa Hyatt last spring, he turned to a veteran of his county’s police department.

The new police chief is Robert McCullough, a 35-year veteran of the County's police force. He was confirmed by the County Council in April and is the first African American to lead the country’s 21st largest police department in Maryland’s third largest jurisdiction.

McCullough joined Tom in-studio for Midday.
