  • Fitzgerald Announces March Retirement of Superintendent Mcdonough Assistant Superintendent Kearns Promoted to Lead Agency
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 4, 2021 Fitzgerald Announces March Retirement of Superintendent McDonough Assistant Superintendent Kearns Promoted to Lead Agency PITTSBURGH – County Executive Rich Fitzgerald today announced that County Police Superintendent Coleman McDonough has decided to retire at the end of March having served as the head of the agency since June 2016. McDonough made the announcement to the department earlier today. “We have been fortunate to have Superintendent McDonough’s leadership in the County Police for the past five years, after his time at both state and local agencies. His steady leadership and example allowed him to work with and navigate the many law enforcement organizations here in our community through particularly difficult times for police locally and nationally,” said Fitzgerald. “We are sorry that he will be leaving the county but wish Coleman well as he spends much-deserved time off with his family and friends.” Superintendent McDonough joined the Allegheny County Police Department (ACPD) as its superintendent in 2016. The former Chief of Police in Mt. Lebanon, he began his career in law enforcement in 1984 with the Pennsylvania State Police as a trooper. He rose to the position of Deputy Commissioner. A United States Army Veteran, McDonough has also been affiliated with a number of professional organizations including the county, state and international Chiefs of Police associations and the FBI National Academy Associates. “When Coleman took over as superintendent, he took the helm of an agency that had not had a lot of turnover or change prior to his hiring. His existing relationships, easy-going nature and community approach to law enforcement enabled him to effect a culture change at the department much more quickly than anyone else may have been able to do,” said County Manager William D.
