The Motor City Muckraker
DETROIT — Delivering on a pledge to fix Detroit’s long-beleaguered Fire Department, first-year Commissioner Eric Jones announced a major shakeup Wednesday.
Jones ousted three top officials – Interim Deputy Commissioner John Berlin, Fire Marshal Robin Eagan and Chief of Training Stephen Johnson, all of whom have the option of reverting to their former rank.
The shakeup comes a little more than four months after Jones, a former police chief, was appointed by Mayor Mike Duggan. Jones replaced Commissioner Edsel Jenkins after Motor City Muckraker revealed major problems within his administration.
