Hanover police have named a new deputy chief of police.
George Hebblethwaite will assume the role starting this November.
Hebblethwaite retired from a 33-year career with the OPP in 2011 and then served as a part-time constable with the Hanover Police Service from 2011 to 2014. Following that, he returned to school and became a licensed paralegal accepting an appointment by the Regional Municipality of Waterloo as a provincial offences prosecutor.
With the new appointment of Hebblethwaite as deputy chief, the Hanover Police Service will phase out the role of police inspector by the end of this year.
