Monday, 11:33 a.m. New Joplin police chief sworn in



Lane Roberts was sworn in as Joplin’s police chief today during a ceremony at City Hall.

After the ceremony, Roberts cited several issues that are important to him, such as adding officers, achieving department accreditation with the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, and 911 concerns.

However, until he spends at least a few days on the job, he said he could not say which issue would be the highest on his list of things to do.

Roberts also said he plans to stay on the job for at least 10 years.

Roberts replaces Kevin Lindsey, who left to take a job in Fort Smith, Ark., in January.

Roberts was most recently director of the Deschutes (County) 911 Service District in Bend, Ore. He previously was police chief with several departments in the states of Oregon and Washington. He spent seven years as chief at Redmond and four years as chief criminal deputy and undersheriff of Yakima County, Wash. He has worked in law enforcement since 1971.
