Saskatoon’s deputy police chief is calling it a career.

Mitch Yuzdepski retired Thursday after 36 years with the police service, which included time spent as a patrol officer and dog handler, and stints in both major crimes and the forensic identification unit.

“Please join us in congratulating D/C Yuzdepski on a dedicated career to law enforcement,” the police service said in a social media post.
