South Brunswick Chief Raymond Hayducka announced the promotion of two officers on July 8.

“Today we promoted two officers who have distinguished themselves by their work efforts and commitment to our community. They have taken on numerous roles outside of their primary jobs to better our department. They underwent a rigorous testing process by the New Jersey State Association of Chiefs of Police during the pandemic to achieve their new ranks. I know that these officers will bring all their talents and skills to benefit our department,” Hayducka said in a prepared statement.
