STATter 911 has learned Dr. Michael Williams, the medical director for the DC Fire & EMS Department, submitted his resignation this afternoon. Officially the parting has been called amicable. Unofficially, city sources report there has been some tension of late leading to William’s leaving. An official statement is expected later.
Recently, Dr. James Augustine was hired as deputy medical director. Dr. Augustine was the medical director for the Atlanta Fire Department where DC Fire & EMS Chief Dennis Rubin had been chief before taking the job in Washington. It is expected that Dr. Augustine will be acting director and a top candidate for the job.
More information as we get it.

I have it on good authority that the Dr was over stepping his bounds and did not follow the NIM/ICS/SOG's very well causing confusionin the command post.
