Morrow has narrowed it search for a police chief to three finalists.

The city, home to Southlake Mall, has been without a permanent chief for 18 months when Melvin Douglas was fired after only four months. The finalists are Greg Tatroe who has served as interim police chief since January 2015; James Callaway, a captain in the city’s police department and Keo Sengkhamphong, the police department’s watch commander.
