West Hartford PD's Ranks Grow By Four

WEST HARTFORD, CT — The ranks of West Hartford's finest grew by four with a quartet of rookies recently completing academy training and, now, are in the midst of local field training.

The West Hartford Police Department last month welcomed the newest members of the force — officers Jacob Smith, Graciela Ross, Haley Lespier, and Tyree Burns.

So far, they have completed and recently graduated from the New Britain Police Department Regional Satellite Basic Recruit Academy.

The officers have been assigned to the WHPD's Patrol Division and are in the midst of the field training and evaluation period.

"We look forward to introducing them to our community and wish them all the best as they begin their careers in service to West Hartford," wrote the WHPD.
