Lincolnshire Police’s chief constable has announced that he will retire later this year.

Chief Constable Richard Crompton made his decision for both personal and professional reasons. He said that after having led the force through great change, it is now the right time to step aside and allow a new chief constable to take charge.

Mr Crompton joined Lincolnshire Police in August 2004 as deputy chief constable with previous service in Cumbria and Devon and Cornwall Constabularies.

In April the force commences a new contract with the strategic partner and Mr Crompton said it is right that fresh leadership has the opportunity to shape and develop that crucial relationship.
