Former Summerdale police chief Kevin Brock, 59, and his wife, Lori Brock, 54, were indicted on second-degree forgery and second-degree possession of a forged instrument charges.

An investigation into a property dispute prompted the charges. According to the indictment, the Brocks forged a warranty deed.

The two were booked into the Baldwin County Jail early Tuesday and were released on bonds of $7,500 each.

Kevin Brock was fired last July after the city learned of the criminal investigation.

Brock served six years in the U.S. Air Force before working as a law enforcement officer at Foley Police Department, Loxley Police Department and the state of Alabama. He was appointed chief of Summerdale in July 2018.

The suspects are considered innocent until proven guilty.
