Wilmington’s new Top Cop has been officially sworn in.
On March 15, Joseph Mitchell took the oath of office during the regular meeting of the Wilmington City Council but he’s not on patrol just yet.
Chief Mitchell has been with the Orland Park Police Department since 1995, serving as Chief for the past two years. Over the course of his 27 years in Orland Park, he also served as patrol officer, investigator, sergeant, lieutenant, commander, and deputy chief, as well as briefly as interim assistant village manager.
