ALBANY, N.Y. -- A veteran officer of the Albany Police Department is officially off the force.
Sergeant Peter McKenna was terminated based on misconduct after 18 years of service. He was on suspension since February 2009.
As the Times Union first reported last year, McKenna tried to prevent detective George McNally from being arrested after he was involved in an alcohol related hit and run accident.
Albany Police Chief Steven Krokoff says he's pleased with the arbitrator's decision.
