Donora council discussed the suspension of a police officer during Thursday’s work session and will likely vote to overrule it at next week’s meeting.

Council debated the suspension of Officer Michael Parry, who was briefly put on leave in November. Members questioned the efficacy of the suspension and whether it followed proper procedure.

Council declined to disclose why Parry was suspended, as it is a personnel matter.
