Community activist and former Atlanta mayoral candidate Kyle Keyser's been tapped by Mayor Kasim Reed to help search for a new chief of the Atlanta Police Department.

And Keyser wants to know what qualities you'd like to see in the force's new leader. He's accepting suggestions and comments on the Atlantans Together Against Crime Web site and Facebook.

Former Deputy Chief Lou Arcangeli is also on the search committee, Keyser says. Additional members are scheduled to be announced at a City Hall press conference today at 2 p.m.

Interim Chief George Turner serves at the pleasure of the mayor, although he's said he'd like to have the job.
