The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office has made a changeover in leadership for its District 7 operations based in Fountain Hills. Capt. Larry Kratzer has moved on after six years in Fountain Hills and Capt. Kevin Thomas is taking over command of the District 7 office.
Captain Kratzer is moving within MCSO to take on new challenges and further build his career, as is typical in these roles. His new assignment is with the MCSO Judicial Enforcement Division.
A statement issued by the Town of Fountain Hills states: “the town wants to extend the utmost appreciation to Captain Kratzer, who has overseen the Fountain Hills MCSO district for the past six years. With his leadership, Fountain Hills has remained among the very safest communities in the state. Residents have often seen him throughout the community as well as at Town Council meetings providing updates and information on public safety.”
