    FORT PIERCE — Police Chief Eugene Savage was arrested on three felony charges this afternoon relating to a bank check that he signed and deposited in November.

    Savage was indicted this morning on charges of grand theft, forgery of a bank check and uttering a forged bill - all third-degree felonies punishable by five years in prison, according to the State Attorney's Office.

    He turned himself into the county jail at about 2:30 p.m. and bonded out by 3 p.m.

    A $5,800 check was issued to Savage and his ex-wife, Gwendolyn Boyd, in November, according to assistant state attorney Lev Evans.

    Savage signed both of their names and deposited the check into a local bank, Evans said.

    Boyd, who is police chief in North Miami Beach, complained to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in January.

    Evans stressed that the charges were not related to Savage's job with the police department or the city of Fort Pierce.

    Savage and Boyd had divorced in April 2005.

    What happens when...

    He should never have gotten the job. FP told the IACP to competitively find a chief for the department, but Savage failed the vetting early on. None of the three submitted to the city council were black, so they made the IACP drop off a better qualified candidate and put Savage on, who then got the job. They should have said in their requirements the best black candidate for the job. In any event, he turned out to be a dirt bag well before this.
