Last night Andy Chambers was sworn in as the new police superintendent for the Tredyffrin Police Department. Chambers was selected after a search conducted by the Board of Supervisors. He was one of 12 candidates interviewed by supervisors.

Chambers has been with the department for 27 years during which time he rose to the rank of Captain. He has been serving as acting superintendent since March when Richard Harkness stepped down.

Chambers is a 1980 graduate of Penn State and has a master's degree in public administration. He graduated from the FBI Academy in 1995.
