St. Thomas/St. John Police Chief resigns
St. Thomas-St. John Police Chief Barrington Thomas Sr. announced Tuesday that he is stepping down from the post.
Thomas told The Daily News that he will remain with the V.I. Police Department under Operations, but he is awaiting reassignment from Police Commissioner Ray Martinez and the incoming chief.
“I think I’m capable of moving the unit in the direction that it should be moving, and to protect and serve,” Thomas said.
Thomas has served as the acting St. Thomas-St. John police chief since Sept. 3, 2021, and has been with the Police Department for the last 35 years.
He noted that there are no “ill feelings” toward Martinez about the decision.
