Two Grand Haven Department of Public Safety officers who were fired following a November 2009 domestic dispute will be returning to the force.
According to Police Officers Labor Council representative Will Keizer, James "Todd" and Dana DeVries have reached a settlement agreement with the Department of Public Safety that will allow them to return to duty.
The DeVrieses are still employees of the department, Keizer wrote in an e-mail to the Tribune, but are currently on a temporary leave of absence. There is no scheduled date for their return to the department, he said.
Dana DeVries was arrested following a domestic dispute at the couple's home on Nov. 3, 2009. She was charged with domestic violence the next day, but that charge was later dropped.
James DeVries' last day with the department was Nov. 25, 2009. Dana DeVries' last day was Dec. 16, 2009.
The Tribune will have more details on this story later.
