The NAPS board announced on Friday that they are conducting an investigation an alleged misconduct by Chief of Police Roland Morrison and for that reason he has been placed on paid suspension until it is completed.

Morrison started working as Chief in September 2018 after the former chief, Terry Armstrong, announced his retirement. Morrison was officially given the position in April 2019.

The Indigenous police force has offices from the Manitoba border to the Quebec border and north to the James Bay Coast, covering an area that is two-thirds the size of Ontario.
