New Natchitoches Police Department officers Frederick Nichols, Ashton Cheng, and RaLonzo Lacey recently graduated from the Alexandria Regional Police Academy.  The new officers spent several grueling months in training to graduate and will now participate in the NPD’s field training program to gain even more experience.

“We would like to congratulate our new officers on their successful completion of the 16 weeks of training and becoming POST certified peace officers. We are grateful to have them as part of the team and look forward to them helping provide service and protection to our communities,” said Chief of Police Nikeo Collins.
