Sgt. James Kerr is among the three finalists seeking the position of Chief of Police in Petersburg.

Steve Giesbrecht told The Pilot five finalists were interviewed on Wednesday and the list was pared down to three people who will be invited to town for a meet and greet in June.

Members of the Public Safety Advisory Board, the borough clerk and manager conducted the interviews via Skype. Kerr was interviewed in person.

Kerr joined the department in June 2013 after serving nine years in Kingman, Arizona.
