GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK)- The Green Bay Police Department added five new faces to their staff.
Chief Andrew Smith swore in five new officers during a ceremony Monday.
The new officers came from all over the U.S., and one has ties to the area.
“It means a lot to be part of a community which I grew up with,” said officer Scott Delsart. “Being able to do it for the city that I’m from, coming out of the military, being able to continue to serve others, is a privilege.”
The Green Bay Police Department is still understaffed by eight officers. Chief Smith says they will wait until they find the right officers as they have high standards, and will not hire just to fill a position.
