The Whitestown Metropolitan Police Department recently celebrated three officers who graduated from the Indiana Metropolitan Police Department Academy over the weekend as they continue to hone their skills to best serve the Whitestown community.
The department congratulated Captain John Jurkash, Lt. Joe Turney and Sgt. Erick Frith on their graduation from the academy over the weekend. The academy consisted of four weeks of classwork, lecture, group exercises, capstone case studies and essays with the intent to improve police agencies across the state as well as lead the next generation of police officers.
“We are thankful to IMPD for not only hosting this course to build resilient leaders, but for opening it to WMPD and agencies throughout the state to network, collaborate and empower police leaders,” the department released. “This was our second group of students who have successfully graduated, and it is our mission to continue sending leaders within WMPD to constantly improve outselves and our service to the community.”
