Former police officer will not return to work

CHANDLER - A former police officer awaiting trial on felony assault and trespassing charges won't get his job back. Friday, City Manager Mark Pentz backed a city personnel board recommendation to keep Officer Brian Rader, 32, off the force. Police say Rader attacked neighbor Chris Malham on Jan. 17. Police records show Rader was "extremely intoxicated" at the time.
