On June 15 and 16, Pacific Grove police officers cited five people on Ocean View Boulevard and nearby streets for feeding animals. “My understanding is that in these five cases, it was squirrels that were being fed,” Pacific Grove Police Chief Casey Day told The Pine Cone this week.

Kung Fu Chief starts soon.

City manager Matt Mogensen said he selected Casey Day, a law enforcement officer with about 25 years of experience who’s spent the last five years as the chief for the City of Fortuna in Humboldt County. Day will start the job March 31 and will be sworn in April 2 in P.G. City Council chambers.

Day will replace former PGPD Chief Cathy Madalone, who said on Sept. 27, 2024, that she was retiring after five years at the department. Madalone’s retirement came after she suffered an undisclosed injury in late 2023 and worked from home for months. Madalone, 56, eventually went on paid leave for about six months before retiring. She declined to disclose the nature of her injury. Brian Anderson has been the acting chief since her departure.

Day himself, a sergeant at the time, wound up being department’s nunchuck-instructor, which effectively made him the ninja-cop poster boy — the officer sent to demonstrate his nunchuck skills on numerous TV news segments.

In one such segment, Day told a CNN correspondent that he was initially skeptical of the weapon but quickly came to view them as an effective “restraining tool.”
