The two new patrol officers sworn in to the Rumson Police Department at the June 3 Borough Council meeting were Hannah Certo and Kevin Walsh, a social media post from the department said.

Certo was previously employed as Special Law Enforcement Officer Class II in Point Pleasant Beach. Before Rumson, Walsh was a full-time officer at Rutgers University, it said.

Promoted within the department were: Logan Keefer and Joseph Pignataro. Both were sworn in as patrolmen. Both began as dispatchers in the department and rose up in the ranks to Class I and Class II officers and now full-time patrolmen, the post added.

The four new patrolmen fill vacancies left by retirees.
