Spencer Police Chief Robert Bennett announced today that he will retire next year.

Bennett shared the news Tuesday during the Law Enforcement Protocol Committee meeting, saying he's reached 30 years in law enforcement and it was just time to retire.

He will retire March 2010. He's been at the department since March 2003.

Before becoming chief in Spencer, Bennett had been the chief in Tryon and in law enforcement in Statesville.
