Three senior members of the Prince Albert Police Service have been recognized with Commissioned Officer designations from His Honour, the Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan, Russ Mirasty.

Inspectors Brent McDonald, Tadd Kellett, and Craig Mushka were formally recognized earlier this week.

Inspector Tadd Kellett has served with the police service since 1998 and currently oversees operations, including Patrol, police college and training, fleet, facilities, and the detention area.
