South Bend Common Council Welcomes Seven New Police Officers <br /> t � <br /> ►a <br /> New members of the South Bend Police force were welcomed Wednesday. It was an exciting <br /> moment for seven men and women who will now wear the badge. They said their oaths and <br /> signed their names and now they are officially officers! <br /> Many of them say they were inspired by others to go into this field. Anjelica Glaspie said, "My <br /> family was military. A lot of them were in the Army. I didn't choose to go that route. I wanted <br /> to work in a local city so I choose law enforcement." And Joseph Carey said, "It was one of the <br /> things that my dad never wanted his kids to do, never wanted his kids to go into law <br /> enforcement. He didn't want to have to worry about us. I finally got the courage to ask him one <br /> day to give me permission if he thought it would be ok to sign up and he said if that's what I <br /> wanted to do I could go for it." Carey said he signed up the very next day right after his dad <br /> gave him permission. He said he understands the risks involved but is excited to serve the people <br /> of South Bend. <br /> View Video <br /> Source: www.Fox28.com <br />
