NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The first Black female squad commander is now leading the 46th Precinct stationhouse in the Bronx.
Lt. Rennae Francis joined the NYPD as a police cadet in 2007 while she was going to John Jay College of Criminal Justice.
She later became a police officer.
“I joined the police academy. I had a great time. It was six months of working out and learning the law,” Francis said. “I look back now, 10 years later, I’m like, wow, I cannot believe 10 years ago I was running laps in the gym and now I run a detective squad.”
