PITTSBURGH, PA – After 29 years with the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police, Chief Scott Schubert is announcing his retirement from the force.
“Following deep reflection and significant discussion with my family, I have come to the decision that it is time to step away from the Chief’s position and allow one of my brothers or sisters in blue the opportunity to serve this great city and this storied institution. There has been no greater professional or personal joy than to have represented the City of Pittsburgh and the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police,” said Schubert.
Over his nearly three decades in public service, he rose through the ranks from Patrolman to Detective, Sergeant, Lieutenant, Commander, Assistant Chief, and Acting Chief before being promoted to Chief of Police in February 2017.
Schubert’s final day as Police Chief is Friday, July 1, 2022.
Deputy Chief Tom Stangrecki will serve as Acting Chief until a new Chief is named.
