Sheriff Mike Neustrom announced he will not seek reelection as Lafayette Parish Sherriff after 14 years at the post.

Neustrom, 67, told reporters Monday afternoon his decision not to run was influenced by his will to spend more time with his family and to continue to work with AMI Kids, a non-profit youth organization.

Voters will head to the polls this fall to elect Neustrom's successor. His final term will end in June 2016.
