Following a restructure in early 2021, Lieutenant Bala, the Commanding Officer of the Field Training Division was redesignated as a Police Captain - becoming a member of Command Staff. With the dissolution of the Rockford Hills Patrol Division, Deputy Chief Bala was assigned to Patrol Command of the Mission Row Patrol Division - additionally earning his mettle as a Gang Officer of the Gang Field Unit, situated under the Gang and Narcotics Division.
Deputy Chief Bala, then Commander, passed the relay of Commanding Officer of the Field Training Division which was consistently improved and maintained to provide quality Field Training to Detective Eleanor Quinn on the 20th of February, putting an end to his amazing tenure as the Commanding Officer of one, if not the most important divisions in the Los Santos Police Department.
