The police chief and three officers that make up the entire four-person police department of the town of Geary, Oklahoma, and two of the town’s city council members have resigned with little explanation.

Former Police Chief Alicia Ford did not address the specific reasons for the Thursday resignations, but wrote in a social media post that the decision was difficult.

My camp is in a town of 900 souls, and most of them are in the outlying land, not the city center. What cops?! We don't have one. And they're hardly needed, we take care of ourselves.

Is that even an incorporated city? Sounds like it relies on county sheriffs, which is typical for places like that.

Good question! Unincorporated.
