DETROIT (WXYZ) — Detroit Police Chief James Craig has tested positive for COVID-19, Mayor Mike Duggan announced on Friday.

According to Duggan, Craig, 63, will remain on quarantine while he fights this off. Assistant Chief James White will oversee the day-to-day operations of the department.

"Certainly we want him to get rest, and fight this new challenge," White said, adding that the chief is very fit, focused on nutrition and exercise.

Duggan said that in all, 39 officers have tested positive for COVID-19 and another 468 are on quarantine.

In the last day, they have gotten 35 officers back from quarantine, and another 119 are in the process of being brought back from quarantine.

The department is taking the temperatures of officers before and after every shift, and they said they haven't had a sick officer work.
