INDIANAPOLIS — Bobby Ferguson has been elected president of the Indianapolis Fraternal Order of Police after running unopposed, the organization announced.
Ferguson, who currently serves as the lodge’s vice president, was nominated without opposition and elected during a membership meeting last week. He is expected to be formally sworn in next month.
He will succeed Rick Snyder, who recently announced he would not seek another term as president.
Snyder endorsed Ferguson as his successor, saying he was ready to take over leadership of the organization. The FOP said the transition is intended to provide stability and continuity for the local lodge.
“I’m ready to hit the ground running in this new role and look forward to the opportunity to continue improving the work and health of the officers of our capital city,” Ferguson said.
Ferguson will take over as Indianapolis prepares for the 2027 municipal election cycle, which will include races for mayor and the City-County Council.
