And it is reflected in the Manteca Police Department’s motto: “Duty to serve.”The best compliment you can confer when they retire is that they did their job while doing the high wire balancing act of protecting lives and protecting rights.Nick Obligacion has retired after serving five years as Manteca Police Chief. He was Manteca’s fifth police chief since 1985.
