The Lewis-Clark Fraternal Order of Police has endorsed Henderson, Nevada police officer Jason Kuzik to be Lewiston’s next chief of police.

Kuzik was one of two finalists for the job who visited with community members in Lewiston last week. The other was Pasadena Police Officer Mark Goodman.

The Lewiston Tribune reports members of the Lewis-Clark Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #10 met with both candidates. On Sunday, FOP President Andrew Fox sent out a letter offering the group’s unanimous support for Kuzik.

Kuzik is a 25-year veteran of the Henderson Police Department where he currently serves as captain.

Lewiston Mayor Dan Johnson has the final decision on who gets the chief’s job – replacing Budd Hurd, who retired earlier this month. He’s been seeking input from community members, as well as the city council, members of the Lewiston Police Department and other city employees. (Lewiston Tribune)
