We are proud to recognize our FWPD officers and the North Texas Police Cycling Team as they competed in the 2025 World Police and Fire Games, held June 27 through July 6 in Birmingham, Alabama. Representing both the Fort Worth Police Department and the community on an international stage is a significant honor, our officers demonstrated exceptional sportsmanship, dedication, and discipline, throughout the competition. Competing against police and fire personnel from around the world, the team delivered an outstanding performance, earning 10 gold medals, 5 silver medals, and 2 bronze medals. Their achievements reflect not only athletic excellence but also the professionalism and commitment that define our department.
On July 11, FWPD proudly hosted a graduation ceremony for Recruit Class 159. The graduating class welcomed 35 new officers to the department, strengthening FWPD ’ s commitment to serving and protecting the Fort Worth community. The department extends a warm welcome to these officers as they begin their careers in public service.
The Run for the Blue 5K was held on July 5 in Dallas, and several of our officers participated in support of this meaningful event. Established in response to the July 7, 2016 attack that claimed the lives of five officers and injured eight others in the line of duty, the Run for the Blue raises funds to assist fallen and injured law enforcement officers and their families. FWPD is proud to stand alongside the law-enforcement community in honoring the sacrifice of these officers and supporting their families, reflecting our commitment to remembrance, solidarity, and service.
