After less than three years on the job, Savannah Chatham Metro Police Chief Michael Berkow submitted his resignation on Friday. Berkow says leaving is difficult, but he has missed three years of his son’s live, and a new opportunity will bring the two closer together. Berkow will be based in California, as President and Chief Operating Officer of a new division of a company called Altegrity, a large company that consults on international policing efforts. Berkow says he was approached about this position in April. Berkow says he will remain in Savannah through mid-October.
