A new officer with the Hinton Police Department was sworn in at the Jan. 18 Hinton City Council meeting. The newly inducted Patrolman Michael Hoyle is already a certified officer in the state of West Virginia.

Hinton Police Department issued a statement on these occurrences. It concludes by saying, “We are very proud and fortunate to have these two fine officers.”
