MELROSE, MA The police department welcomed three new officers who graduated from the academy.
Officers Alexander Wilson, Ashley Baldwin and Lucas Kaestner graduated from the Lowell Police Academy earlier this month and were sworn in Dec. 14. There was no formal graduation ceremony due to the pandemic. I am excited to welcome these three new officers to the force, Mayor Paul Brodeur said in a release. Their diverse skills and training will benefit the department and the community now and in the future.
