Keith Falasco said he knows he has some big shoes to fill in replacing recently retired Police Chief Bruce Rosa.

There are many, however, who believe Falasco's extensive background from about two decades working in a variety of law enforcement professions will help him fill those shoes.

Falasco, 47, of Greenville, was recently named interim chief, replacing Rosa who retired May 31 after 21 years with the department, the last three as chief, to pursue a career in the ministry.
