Dallas' police chief resigns, will stay through end of year

Dallas' police chief resigns, will stay through end of yearU. Reneé Hall, the first Black woman to lead the Dallas police force, submitted her resignation Tuesday but agreed to stay on through the end of the year. Hall's resignation letter, which the city provided to The Associated Press, didn't give a reason for stepping down. Hall is the latest in a parade of big city chiefs to resign or retire amid the protests and unrest that have swept the county since George Floyd, a Black man who was on the ground and handcuffed, died in May after a white Minneapolis police officer pressed his knee on Floyd’s neck for several minutes.
