Dayton Police loses their chief to the Dayton of the South, Greensboro.
The police chief who was asleep at the wheel decides to return back to the South.
Dayton Police Chief Kamran Afzal has announced he is resigning and will take up the job for the police chief in the Dayton of the South, Greensboro, North Carolina.
Greensboro has a population of 325,000 residents and a city radius of 155 square miles.
The city is growing where as Dayton continues its downfall.
Dayton mayot Shenise Sloss-Turner, city manager Shelley Dickinson and city officials were notified of the resignation.
Now the city has to look for a replacement who is willing to deal with a city plagued by gun violence, graffiti, endless theft and a declining population.
Greensboro chief John Thompson announced his retirement in 2025 and the city actively searched for a replacement. Afzal who was then police chief of Hopewell, Virginia before being hired to Dayton in 2021.
Hopewell is about 165 miles from Greensboro.
What's a progressive mayor to do?
His departure will be not be missed. I barely saw the police chief. He will be finishing up his tenure around his five year anniversary. He will have protesters on his ass about the police shooting of Regnald Thomas. He was 44 years old.
The shooting will be investigated separately by Dayton and Montgomery County law enforcement. A local group that advocates against police violence has spoken out, saying they are "enraged."
At a news conference where body cam footage was also played, Dayton Police Chief Kamran Afzal said the officer was on a routine patrol and stopped Thomas on his bike around 9:30 p.m. This was around North St. Clair and East Third streets.
The body cam recording shows the officer telling the man he was stopped because he didn't have a light on his bike and was riding on the sidewalk. Thomas said he was on the sidewalk because there wasn't a bike lane, and that he had a reflector on his bike.
Thomas tells the officer he wasn't armed. The officer asks to pat him down. Thomas then starts running away.
Ohio law allows people to carry a concealed weapon but also requires people to tell police that when asked.
Afzal said Thomas took out his gun when being chased.
The police officer and Thomas struggled multiple times throughout the encounter.
During a struggle, Afzal said Thomas seems to go toward the dropped handgun. The officer fired one shot. Thomas was taken to a hospital and died from his injuries.
Afzal played body cam footage and showed still images from the encounter, but didn’t play the actual shooting.
"I'm not going to show the actual shooting on that. There's enough trauma that occurs in our community and we are not going contribute to that. This is a traumatic situation as it is for everybody involved, including our officers," he said.
Afzal's hiring did put controversy on Greensboro city leaders. They passed on a seasoned veteran of the Greensboro Police. They allegedly did a smoke and mirrors. The public had input on who to choose. They wanted a local official to be police chief. The city went to Dayton and plucked its chief.
The assistant police chief Stephanie Mardis was rejected for the role. She is an African American police official.
From Durango, Colorado to Hopewell, Virginia to Dayton, Ohio now Greensboro, Kamran Afzal will have either a short stay or a long stay.
Seriously this will be added to the Kristi Noem controversies.

Bryon Noem allegedly dresses up in women boob suits. He dresses up to attract men and women. It is an open secret. So I guess that's why Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski have that special friendship. The former first gentleman and husband of the disgraced Trump Administration officials made her life more chaotic.
Look, he isn't in the federal government and its own business. Not my place to judge.
However, the controversy keeps the former Homeland Security chief and former South Dakota governor had that MAGA makeover. It must have trigger Byron to be like his wife.
Kristi was a former South Dakota state lawmaker, U.S. House member, governor and Homeland Security secretary in President Donald J. Trump's second administration.
She felt a lot of pushback over opening during the pandemic, the approval of the Keystone XL pipeline which went through reservations. The tribal groups have permanently banned her and her family from the land. Eight of the nine tribal groups have banned her from entry.
Her handling of ICE led to the deaths of Americans. It was marred with agents who raped women, allowed people in treatments to die, detaining children under 12, pushing for more armed protection, losing her purse, having a food allergy, allowing Lewandowski travel with her frequently, allowing him to fire people without proper protocols, spending on personal expenses and so many other issues under watch led to her eventual firing.
Noe, shattered by the explosive new report that her husband leads a cross-dressing double life in which he chats online with fetish models.
"Ms. Noem is devastated. The family was blindsided by this, and they ask for privacy and prayers at the time," a representative for the former Department of Homeland Security chief told an outlet on Tuesday, March 31.
The same publication revealed on Tuesday that Bryon Noem has allegedly been messaging women from the "bimbofication" scene, in which adult entertainers enhance their bitch with tons of saline to make them to look like "Barbie dolls."
She rattled by this. She practically knew about him being in the life.
Bryon Noem Is Into 'Bimbofication'
The Daily Mail said they "reviewed hundreds of messages" between Bryon, 56, and three women, whose "huge, huge ridiculous b----" he complimented and claimed to covet.
In photos obtained by the outlet, the insurance agent — who shares three adult children with 54-year-old Kristi — can be seen wearing hot pants and tight tops stuffed with what appear to be balloons.
Bryon made no effort to conceal his face in the images and is shown in some puckering up for the camera.
'I Deny the Second Part'
Daily Mail reported that Bryon didn't deny messaging s-- workers and sharing photos of himself dressed as a woman while the DHS Secretary was leading an aggressive, high-profile ICE deportation campaign.
However, when it was implied that he discussed his wife with the adult performers, which could potentially lead to Kristi being blackmailed, Bryon responded, "Yeah, I made no comments like that, that would lead to that. I deny the second part of that."
Welcome to Hoven.
Kristi Noem Once Said Her Family Was 'an Open Book'
Kristi and Bryon met in high school and wed in 1992. They are parents to two daughters, Kassidy, 31, and Kennedy, 29, and a son, Booker, 23.
In a 2022 interview, the former governor of South Dakota described herself and her family as "an open book," claiming they're very "transparent."
Ironically, before Bryon's secret life made headlines, Kristi was facing ongoing public scrutiny over her alleged affair with Donald Trump senior advisor Corey Lewandowski.
When Byron ain't around Corey can come by.
Rumors About Kristi Noem's Affair Have Been Swirling for Years
Reports of a romantic relationship between the pair first emerged in September 2021.
As OK! previously reported, Corey, 52, was allegedly fired from his role as a special government employee on March 25 after being photographed with Kristi during a trip to South America.
The political advisor's axing followed the president's shocking move to replace "ICE Barbie" with Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) as DHS Secretary.
