The current second-in-command at the Douglas County Sheriff's Office will leave his role in January to become a police chief in Ohio.

Chief Deputy Wayne Hudson has been appointed by the mayor of Shaker Heights as the city's next chief of police. Hudson will retire from the Sheriff's Office to begin his new role on Jan. 9, according to a press release.

Shaker Heights Mayor David Weiss said in a statement that Hudson's background in law enforcement, commitment to community and inclusion and strong interpersonal communication skills were reasons he was chosen.

The Shaker Heights Police Department employs 68 sworn officers and 36 support and part-time personnel, according to the release. The city's outgoing police chief is retiring after 33 years with the department.

Hudson had been with the Sheriff's Office since 1994, when he joined as a reserve deputy sheriff, according to the release. He was hired full time in 1995 and rose through the ranks as a sergeant, lieutenant and captain.

In 2021, he became the first Black man to serve as chief deputy in the Sheriff's Office.

Before his time with the Sheriff's Office, Hudson began his career in law enforcement as a security police specialist in the U.S. Air Force, the release said.

In a press release from the Sheriff's Office, Hudson said he is thankful to have been chosen for the new role and also reflected on his tenure with the Sheriff's Office.

"I truly thank the Douglas County community for raising me, educating me, and allowing me in your homes, houses of worship and businesses to do community engagement activities," he said in the statement. "I hope to leave a legacy of dedication, community service and professional law enforcement services."

Hudson ran for the top job in the Sheriff's Office this year but did not advance beyond the primary.

Douglas County Sheriff-elect Aaron Hanson announced last month that Capt. Will Niemack will be his chief deputy.

Or maybe you've never heard about Capital One Cafes, in which case you may also be wondering why a bank has cafes. In this post: What are Capital One Cafes? There are several dozen Capital One Cafes around the United States. Think of them as being somewhere between a coffee shop and bank. Capital One Cafes are described as community centers that are open to everyone, whether you just want a quiet place to work or relax, or whether you have questions about banking. A few things to note: Capital One Cafes are full service coffee shops operated in conjunction with Peet's Coffee; so you can get coffee, sweet treats, sandwiches, etc. Capital One Cafes have "Cafe Ambassadors" who can answer any banking questions you might have, and you can expect that each location will hav...
