SILVER HILL AL
JULY 15 2007
Silverhill Police Chief Al Coggins has resigned, leaving the town with only one police officer. Coggins, a four-year veteran with the department, says he's resigned for medical reasons. The chief's departure has some people in Silverhill wondering if one cop is enough.
"I'm concerned with the news out there that we don't have a police chief and only one officer, we could be a target for crime," says Dalton Head. Head owns an antique shop on Highway 104. "We have a lot of speeders in town, especially in the morning. And with no officers on duty in the mornings, we could have some problems."
The responsibility of protecting and patrolling Silverhill now falls in the hands of Baldwin County Sheriff Hoss Mack. As chief law enforcement officer of Baldwin County, Mack says he will provide law enforcement protection and services to Silverhill residents.
"Our department is stretched thin," says Mack. "Now that we're providing services in Foley and Summerdale's police jurisdictions, this is just one more challenge. But we're going to approach the county commission and ask for additional resources."
Coggins says his last day on-duty will be July 26th.
