Regina’s police chief says he will retire at the end of June.

Evan Bray has posted on social media that he notified the police board Tuesday, adding being chief has been the biggest honour of his professional life.

Bray says this year marks 28 years with the Regina Police Service and seven years as chief. 

He says there have been significant challenges, but he’s also seen the most incredible acts of bravery.

Bray was involved in the investigation into the fatal mass stabbing at James Smith Cree Nation last September after a report of a suspect vehicle in the city. 

Emails show about 40 Regina police employees were part of the response, including detectives and additional patrol officers.
