Description

Press release from the City of Grand Rapids: June 15, 2022 GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Last Friday, the Police Chief and the Labor Relations Office recommended that I terminate Christopher Schurr's employment with the City. I accepted that recommendation and scheduled a required discharge hearing. I have been informed by Mr. Schurr's representatives that he is waiving his right to the hearing and, therefore, I have decided to terminate Mr. Schurr's employment with the Grand Rapids Police Department effective June 10, 2022. Due to the on-going criminal matter and the potential for civil litigation, I will not be providing any additional comment concerning Mr. Schurr at this time. – Mark Washington, City Manager This press release was produced by the City of Grand Rapids.
