Ocean Ridge: Veteran officer joins PD

The Ocean Ridge Police Department is fully staffed after commissioners approved hiring 27-year veteran David Ralph Kurz.
Kurz, who started in October, filled an opening created when Officer Gene Rosenberg retired last December. The department has since reorganized, moving to 12-hour shifts to help alleviate expenses including overtime in another tight-budget year for Florida municipalities.
The new officer started his police career at 24 and has worked in police departments in Coconut Creek, Plantation and Deerfield Beach and with the Seminole Tribe, according to Police Chief Chris Yannuzzi. Most recently with the Indian River Sheriff’s Office as a crime scene detective, Kurz also has worked for the Broward County and Palm Beach County sheriffs’ offices.
Kurz served 20 years on road patrol and has “advanced proficiency” in crime scene investigation and is an expert witness.
