The city of New Haven has a new police chief.
On Monday Otoniel Reyes, who was serving the New Haven Police Department as interim police chief, was formally sworn in as the permanent chief of police.
He was the assistant chief and has been leading the department since March, when the former chief, Anthony Campbell, retired.
New Haven Mayor Toni Harp said in July that Reyes was her choice to become the new police chief.
Reyes, who grew up in New Haven, has been with the department for 19 years.
