The former White Cloud Police Chief is suing the city alleging a violation of the state of Michigan's Whistleblower's Protection Act.
The suit was filed on December 30 in federal court.
Daniel Evans claims he received excellent evaluations and never had disciplinary issues until the summer of 2024.
Evans says he brought up safety issues regarding fencing around a city water pump and dam which caused his relationship with the city to take a turn.

Four days later, he was fired.
