Top police leaders in Rochester, New York's third-largest city, have retired en masse amid criticism of the city's handling of the suffocation death of Daniel Prude. Police chief La'Ron Singletary, his Deputy Chief Joseph M. Morabito and Chief of Administration Mark L. Simmons are among those who have retired. The shock resignations were announced by Mayor Lovely Warren at a virtual city council briefing on Tuesday. Council members had been expecting the chief to appear in person to discuss ongoing protests over Prude's death. Singletary has been facing calls to resign ever since details emerged last week of Prude's death several days after his encounter with police on March 23. Rochester, a city of 200,000 people on Lake Ontario, erupted with protests last week after the Prude family released body camera footage from the arrest. Rochester Police Department's Deputy Chief Joseph M. Morabito (left) and Chief of Administration Mark L. Simmons (right) have also retired.
