Entire Geary Police Department, 2 City Council Members Resign

Small-town Oklahoma police department resigns en masse

The entire police department in the small town of Geary, Oklahoma, has resigned, along with two city council members. The mass resignation comes after months of turmoil between the police department and the city council. Tensions between the two groups had been building for months, and the situation finally came to a head last week when the city council voted to disband the police department.

Mayor expresses disappointment, city in 'crisis mode'

The mayor of Geary, Marty Melody, expressed his disappointment with the resignations, saying that the city is now in a "crisis mode." He said that the city is working to find a solution, but he did not provide any details. The city council is scheduled to meet again next week to discuss the situation.

Lack of local police coverage, county takes over for now

In the meantime, the Blaine County Sheriff's Office is providing law enforcement coverage for Geary. The sheriff's office said that it is committed to providing the best possible service to the community.

Growing trend of police resignations

The mass resignation in Geary is part of a growing trend of police resignations across the country. In recent months, entire police departments have resigned in cities such as Buffalo, New York, and Rochester, New York. The resignations are often due to low pay, lack of support from city officials, and concerns about police brutality.

Causes of Geary resignations still largely unknown

The reasons for the mass resignation in Geary are still largely unknown. However, there are some possible explanations. One possibility is that the police department was unhappy with the city council's decision to disband the department. Another possibility is that the police department was understaffed and overworked. Whatever the reasons, the mass resignation has left the city of Geary without a police department.
