There is a new Chief in town. Joseph Sullivan has officially reported for duty and we sat down with him one-on-one to discuss what plans he has for the department. Sullivan comes to Wichita after recently serving as deputy police commissioner for the city of Philadelphia. KAKE News talked to him about a number of issues starting with the lawsuit from executive members of the police department against the city. Sullivan is taking on the badge at a time the department is in turmoil. In a lawsuit, former Chief Gordon Ramsay, two current deputy chiefs, and one former one are calling for City Manager Robert Layton to resign. “I have the authority to run the department and make necessary changes. But of course, he is my boss. I kept him informed. I’m going to focus on my mission and we’ll leave that to the attorneys to sort out,” said Sullivan.
