Baltimore City Schools has hired a new police chief away from the city’s force. Jeffrey Shorter, previously of the Baltimore Police Department for 28 years, will take office starting Aug. 26, the district said in a news release Tuesday. “The youth of today are not only our future. They are our now. We must be the guiding light to lead them into a successful and safe tomorrow. If not now then when? If not us, then who?” Shorter said in a news release.
