A town meeting in Collingdale, Pennsylvania, became heated on Tuesday when local officials attempted to hire a new police chief who is currently under investigation. According to ABC 6, the city was set to finalize the decision to hire Raheem Blanden, a Chester police officer, but the meeting quickly turned contentious.
Blanden is currently facing a criminal investigation for allegedly tipping off a suspect wanted for attempted homicide just five minutes before a police raid on his home, as reported by NBC10. Delco Fraternal Order of Police president Chris Eiserman expressed concern over this incident, stating, “He put every officer in danger by calling this individual and attempting to let them know that the SWAT team was coming to the house.”

I don't blame people who do not want him hired, it seems he may have had a severe lack of judgement if he indeed warned someone of an active arrest action.

At Least, "YES".
What Else He Needs Are Training Lessons In Communication Skills.
And I'm Amazed, Especially In His Position, He'd Obviously NOT Had ANY.

But they knew this and were going to hire him anyway. Doesn’t say much for the councils ethics
