His training included everything from emergency response and marksmanship to community policing, victim services, and hands-on field exercises—preparing him to serve and protect our community with excellence.
Nikolas, a member of the Bear Clan, is the son of Desare Ferguson and Rian Milks, and the grandson of Donna and Jim Ferguson.
