The class included three women and 19 men. Graduates came from a variety of backgrounds, including one Hispanic recruit and one Burmese recruit. The recruit who traveled the farthest to join the Fort Wayne Police Department came from Youngstown, Ohio.<\/p>\n<p>The recruits completed 23 weeks of intensive training and received nearly 1,000 hours of instruction. This significantly exceeds Indiana\u2019s state-mandated requirement of 600 training hours for new law enforcement officers.<\/p>\n<p>Academy instruction covered a wide range of topics, including Indiana law, firearms, defensive tactics, emergency vehicle operations, cultural diversity, de-escalation, mental health response, ethics, communication and other skills necessary to serve the Fort Wayne community safely and professionally.<\/p>\n<p>The graduates will now begin the next phase of their training, applying what they learned at the academy while working alongside experienced personnel in the field.<\/p>\n<p>The Fort Wayne Police Department congratulates the members of the 70th Recruit Class on completing this demanding program and welcomes them as they begin their careers in public safety.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/docs\/City_of_Fort_Wayne\/FWPD\/2026\/2026_07_17_FWPD_70thRecruitClassGraduation.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Download the news release<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/bc\/68975.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Clean up is progressing at the Broadway Auto &amp;amp; Truck Repair shop after a fire.
