After 31 years and moving up the ranks of the Salina Police Department, Deputy Chief Sean Morton is ready to hang up his police belt. Morton, whose final day on the job is Friday, has spent the past few weeks not only cleaning out his office, but also continuing to help lead the department, and assist new Police Chief C.J. Wise’s transition into the department. The deputy chief, who grew up in Marysville, said his reasons for first getting into law enforcement may sound a bit cliché. “I was so interested in getting into this profession,” Morton said. “It was serious that I wanted to help people.”
