Aitkin Police Chief Tim Catlin resigned late last month while on paid administrative leave during an investigation into a complaint, the Aitkin Independent Age reported Dec. 30.
The Aitkin City Council voted to accept Catlin’s resignation, but council members Erin Wagner and Leeann Moriarty opposed the motion. Wagner indicated her opposition centered on the fact the investigation into Catlin’s conduct would not continue by accepting the resignation.
