Frank Sheehan was arrested at his home in Sutton Coldfield on Tuesday as part of investigations into the making of indecent images of children.
West Midlands Fire Service has not yet made any public comment over the allegations.
Mr Sheehan, 55, who was honoured with a CBE in June, is on police bail.
A spokesman for West Midlands Police said a 55-year-old man had been arrested in the Sutton Coldfield area on Tuesday on suspicion of making indecent images of children.
The chief officer for the West Midlands Fire Service has since resigned after his arrest in connection with child pornography.
Deputy chief fire officer Vij Randeniya will take over his role.
Mr Sheehan became chief officer in 2003 and received his CBE for services to local government.
