Annapolis is mobilizing its crime-fighting efforts with the appointment of an interim police chief from Baltimore County, who starts Monday, and a former police commissioner from New York who will advise him.
Mayor Ellen Moyer on Friday announced Michael Pristoop, who spent 21 years with the Baltimore City Police Department, will act as interim police chief and former New York City Police Commissioner Howard Safir, who oversaw a 38 percent drop in crime under former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, will work with the police.
