Asbury Park Police Chief Mark Kinmon confirmed this week that Police Inspector Christopher Van Buren will retire from the department.

Van Burens retirement will take effect in November and Kinmon said he did not expect a replacement to be hired until then.

Kinmon also said Van Buren would begin using accumulated sick days most likely in the near future.
