Probationary Trooper Assigned to the Indiana State Police Peru Post

 

Peru – Recently 21 probationary troopers from the 82nd Indiana State Police Recruit Academy graduated at a ceremony held in Indianapolis. One of the recent graduates, Adrianna Ward, was assigned to the Indiana State Police Peru Post.

 

During her 23 weeks of academy training, she received over 600 hours of classroom instruction and nearly 500 hours of hands-on practical scenario-based training. Some of the training included criminal and traffic law, crash investigations, emergency vehicle operations, defensive tactics, firearms, and a host of other subjects related to modern policing. She will be assigned to train with veteran troopers for the next 13 weeks before being released on solo patrol.

 

Ward is a Miami County native and a 2015 graduate of Peru High School. She is also a 2020 graduate of Indiana University in Kokomo, earning a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice.
