Captain Falco appointed Hoboken Police Chief; Lisa becomes ‘deputy’

There was lots of anxious waiting around City Hall today after a press conference was scheduled for Mayor David Roberts to appoint Captain Anthony Falco as the city’s new police chief, but it was stalled for a few hours. The outgoing mayor and the state had a difference of opinion on whom to appoint. The state favored promoting Acting Chief Robert Lisa.
But by the end of today, Falco was sworn in. Falco is a department veteran who also has dabbled in film production.
In addition, Lisa was appointed to the position of deputy chief.
