Behind the Badge
Behind the Badge captures what a Practice Physical Agility Test is like for an incoming law enforcement officer at the Santa Ana Police Department.
This test was open to the public to learn more and for those who are interested in a law enforcement career, and included challenges such as running 1.5 miles in under 14 minutes, jumping over a chain-link and solid wall, and dragging a heavy dummy.
Runners make their way way past Santa Ana Police Department officers recording a timed 500-yard run as part of Santa Ana PD’s Practice Physical Agility Test at Centennial Park in Santa Ana.
