Northern Virginia police departments facing challenges filling ranks

Law enforcement agencies across northern Virginia are addressing challenges they’re facing hiring officers.

The agencies came together for a hiring fair today.

This comes amid strained relationships between police and the community nationwide and as many departments face shortages among its rank and file.

For example, in Prince William County they’re down thirty officers.

We did ask how the controversial police encounters nationwide are impacting the ability to recruit candidates and we’re told it’s leading to more questions from candidates.

The northern Virginia law enforcement hiring expo took place earlier today inside the Hilton near Washington Dulles Airport in Herndon.

It may come as no surprise, it was not a packed event even though it was free and encouraged walk ups.

  1. You would be absolutely crazy to be a cop. Join the military chances of being in actual combat or conflict are less then 10 percent for all branches. Law enforcement combat or conflict is 95 percent and shooting is 37 percent.

  2. This is going to be a nationwide thing because of all the disrespect, defund the police, and killing of police officers who would want to apply to possibly die in the line of duty and have frozen soda cans, rocks, bombs, and baseball bat beatings. Wise up or your going to have to bring back the Mafia and then it would all be over.
