Chief John Klug – Minot Police Department

Written by CBKN76

In September 2024, Minot Police Chief John Klug was placed on paid administrative leave amid allegations of creating a hostile work environment, inconsistent discipline, and morale issues within the department. A third-party investigation found no evidence of a hostile work environment based on protected categories but noted leadership and morale problems. The report recommended improvements in communication and leadership style. As of November 2024, Klug remained on administrative leave pending further decisions.
