Annapolis mayor fires police chief over management differences, appoints veteran captain as acting chief.

Annapolis Mayor Jared Littmann removed Police Chief Ed Jackson, effective immediately, citing differing management approaches, after Jackson declined a resignation request. Capt. Amy Miguez, a 25-year APD veteran known for her focus on transparency and community engagement, has been named acting chief. Littmann praised Jackson’s work on diversity, reentry programs, and cold case investigations, stating these initiatives will continue. The city will prioritize hiring a permanent city manager before launching a search for a new police chief.
