The City of Fort Mitchell named Rob Nader as their new Chief of Police, replacing Andrew Schierberg who is retiring at the end of 2022.
During last night’s Fort Mitchell City Council meeting, Nader was unanimously appointed as chief. The Fort Mitchell resident is set to be officially sworn in January of 2023.
“I am very thankful for this opportunity to serve the community where my family and I live,” said Nader.
Nader spent 25 years as a police officer for the city of Covington where he served in various roles, including patrol officer, community relations officer, SWAT commander and administrative captain.
In 2017, he was appointed as chief, a position where he served five years. Nader announced his retirement from the Covington police department in August.
“We are beyond thrilled to have Rob join the City of Fort Mitchell,” said Mayor Jude Hehman. “Chief Nader’s experience and strong leadership will be a major asset in enhancing our police department and protecting our community.”
Schierberg served as Fort Mitchell’s police chief since 2016. He also served as acting city administrator in 2020.
“Andrew’s definitely going to be missed around here,” said Hehman. “We thank him for his dedication and service to the city. We know he will have continued success in the future.”
