The Cadiz Police Department has added an officer to its force with nearly 20 years of law enforcement experience.
Robert Harris was sworn in Tuesday morning by Mayor Todd King after it was confirmed by an oath that Harris had never fought in a duel or served as a second in a duel.
Harris has previously worked at police departments in Eddyville and Marion was a detective with the Pennyrile Narcotics Task Force. He felt like the move to Cadiz was a good one for him.
