Pare, 55, became the city’s 19th police chief in May 2015, taking over for outgoing chief Brad Duncan. Pare had served as deputy chief before his promotion.
Wednesday’s announcement follows other high-profile personnel changes with the force. On Monday, police confirmed that acting Insp. Trish McIntyre had been named the acting deputy chief of the city’s police service, making her London police’s first female acting deputy chief.
