Doral Announces Offer for Miami Springs Police Chief Matthew Castillo
Doral, Florida, is preparing to appoint a new police chief after the current chief, Edwin Lopez, announced his resignation to become chief of the Miami Police Department. Lopez’s departure will open the top police position in the city. The city has reportedly extended an offer to Matthew Castillo, who currently serves as chief of police in Miami Springs. Castillo has expressed gratitude for the opportunity and indicated he will discuss the decision with his family before confirming acceptance. No official appointment has been made at this time, and the city has not released a formal statement regarding the transition. The change is expected to influence staffing and leadership structures within Doral’s police department, but no further details have been confirmed. The situation remains under review by municipal officials.
