GROESBECK (February 22, 2013)--Glenn Shoemaker will take over as constable Monday after the death of Buddy Stewart left the position vacant.
Limestone County Commissioners appointed Shoemaker for the position last week.
Shoemaker has more than 20 years of experience in law enforcement and has spent the last 15 years as a patrolman for the city.
A general election for the position will be held in November in which he will have to campaign for the position if he wishes to continue as constable.
