FRANKFORT – The Frankfort Police Department welcomed a new face to its ranks on Monday, September 22, 2025, as Officer Brendan Huffman was officially sworn into service.

During a ceremony at the start of the Village Board meeting, Mayor Keith Ogle administered the oath of office to Huffman, whose wife Shannon pinned on his new badge.

Hired in December 2024, Huffman has since completed his initial training and is now a dedicated member of the department.

“Officer Huffman, on behalf of the Village of Frankfort and the Village Board and the Frankfort Police Department, I congratulate you on your appointment,” Mayor Ogle said. “We welcome you to the community and wish you a long, safe, and successful career in Frankfort.”
