Portland’s white police chief, Jami Resch, has stepped down after just six months on the job, and will be replaced by a black lieutenant Chuck Lovell. The move, which officials said was Resch’s decision, comes amid criticism of the handling of anti-racism protests in the wake of George Floyd’s death. “I have asked Chuck Lovell to step into the role as chief of the Police Bureau,” Resch said at a press conference, according to the Oregonian. “He’s the exact right person at the exact right moment.”
