COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

University of Missouri Police Department Interim Chief Brian Weimer has been named chief of MUPD.

Weimer took over as interim chief in July, replacing former Chief Doug Schwandt, who retired Aug. 3, 2020, after 20 years of service to the department.

MUPD is the primary law enforcement response agency for MU and embraces a community policing model.

Weimer said MUPD is deeply committed to maintaining a campus that is safe and welcoming to everyone.

“Our officers interact with members of our campus community every day, working hard to meet their needs and build relationships,” he said.

Weimer has been with MUPD since 1992, when he joined the department as an officer.
