Hmmmmm. Don't talk [NBC Wash] The chief of D.C.'s Metropolitan Police Department is retiring from his position.
A high-level source with knowledge of the situation told News4 Robert Contee III is taking a job with the FBI.
A D.C. local who grew up in the Carver Terrace community of Northeast D.C., Contee became chief in May 2021 after first joining the department in 1989 and rising through the ranks.
