Thomas A. Broadhead was chief of police of the Los Angeles Police Department for three months in 1909.[1] Broadhead joined the LAPD around 1887,[2] and he had previously been a member of the vice squad.[3] He had been appointed by mayor Arthur C. Harper, and when Harper resigned due to a scandal and was replaced by mayor George Alexander, Broadhead was dismissed as chief and replaced with Edward F. Dishman.[3] Captain Broadhead was indicted on bribery charges a week later,[4] and acquitted in September 1909.[5] After leaving the department, Broadhead went to work as a special agent for the Southern Pacific Railroad until 1924.[2]
