Video: Mentor Police Department Promotes 3 Officers

Mentor Police Chief Daniel Llewellyn had compliments to pay at the end of a special ceremony in which three of his officers were promoted Monday afternoon in .

"I can say without hesitation that this is the best management team I've worked with since I've been here from top to bottom," he said.

That management team now includes Sgt. Mark Stansberry, as well as the recently promoted Lt. Dan Molnar and Capt. Ken Gunsch.

They were promoted to fill the void that Capt. Jeffrey Reese will leave when he retires Jan. 3.

"This is a time of change for us," Mentor City Manager Kenneth Filipiak said to the officers, "and, when we have promotions, it allows us to bring in new ideas."
