Norwich — City police welcomed a new officer recruit this week: a 22-year-old woman from Bozrah.
Jordan Nute, a graduate of Norwich Free Academy, was sworn in as the newest member of the Norwich Police Department on Monday, according to an announcement from department Chief Patrick Daley.
Nute was raised in Bozrah and is studying criminal justice at the University of New Haven. She previously worked as a barista at Starbucks in Newington.
