The Linden Police Department added five new officers to its force on January 6, 2016 in a ceremony held at Linden City Hall. The manpower brings the department’s complement up to 125 officers.
Families, friends, and colleagues were on hand to view the swearing-in ceremony and congratulate the new recruits. Linden Mayor Derek Armstead and Police Chief James M. Schulhafer also welcomed the men to the police force and wished them success in their careers.
