Galveston is without a police force, again. Town Marshal Gary Fordyce resigned, effective Friday.
It comes after less than a year in the position.
Town council member Zach Zimmerman says Fordyce's resignation paperwork listed "other employment" as his reason for leaving.

Fordyce replaced former Marshal Shawn Durham who was fired, rehired and let go again.
Now a Cass County Sheriff's Deputy is temporarily serving in the position part-time. The town will have to depend on State Police and the sheriff's office for help.
