Lethbridge Police Commission extends chief's contract until 2029
Lethbridge's police chief will stay on as the city's top cop for another four years. The Lethbridge Police Commission has announced Chief Shahin Mehdizadeh's contract has been extended until 2029. The commission says the chief has provided consistent leadership through a period of transition and change. The commission added that the extension of the contract comes at a time when the city's Crime Severity Index dropped 19 per cent compared to the year before. Mehdizadeh began his policing career with the RCMP in 1989 and has been with the LPS since 2020. The commission says his contract extension will help continue momentum in a positive direction in the years to come.
