AUSTIN (Talk1370.com) -- Joseph Chacon will be officially sworn in as Austin's next police chief Friday.

Chacon will be sworn in during a ceremony set for 3 p.m. Friday afternoon at LifeAustin Mueller on East 51st Street.


Austin City Manager Spencer Cronk selected Chacon as the city's tenth police chief in September, and was confirmed shortly afterwards by the Austin City Council.

Chacon was selected out of three finalists, and a pool of more than 45 applicants for the position.

The ceremony will be broadcast live on ATXN, the city's cable channel.
