Minneapolis Police Chief Resigns Over Interfering With Probe

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara has resigned after investigators found he interfered with an inquiry into his conduct, including deleting a city‑issued contact from his phone and discussing the probe with a colleague despite being told to stay quiet. The city’s top watchdogs still have 17 open complaints about him, and a search for his replacement is underway as former reforms work remains ongoing; Assistant Chief Katie Blackwell will lead the department in the interim.
