Huron County OPP will have a new detachment commander beginning next week.
Inspector Jason Younan will be leaving the role he has served in for nearly 10 years. He first took over as detachment commander on August 31, 2015.
Huron East councillor John Steffler, a member of the Huron County OPP detachment board, shared the news at Tuesday's council meeting.
"Detachment Commander Jason Younan has issued his resignation," said Steffler. "Commander Younan thanks everyone and he's moving to critical incident. He's been with us for 10 years and I can honestly say he's an excellent person for the role and he'll continue to thrive. So just letting people know we'll have a new detachment commander effective January 20."
Staff Sgt Ryan Olmstead will be the Acting Inspector for the detachment until a permanent Inspector is selected.
