Jersey City Police Chief Mike Kelly retired after 34 years on the job. The Jersey City Police Department experienced tragedy on Dec. 10, 2019, when a pair of gunmen killed several people, including a detective in an anti-Semitic, anti-law enforcement rampage. Kelly was a calm voice during that time, directing the response.
