New Chief on duty
Wayne's new chief of police, Bob Evers, officially took over his duties Monday, replacing ex-chief Vern Fairchild. Evers' assistant chief is E. L. "Pat' Hailey.
A native of Grand Island, Evers has been with the Fremont police department for just over the past three years and has been chief at North Bend the past 14 months.
He and his wife Diane and their two sons, Bobby, three years old, and Eric, one, are moving to Wayne.
