A recent written entrance exam for the Laredo Police Department drew a significant number of candidates. Over 360 individuals took the exam, which was administered on July 22. The turnout was lower compared to a similar exam held in January, which saw more than 500 applicants.

The department had previously experienced a surge in interest, attributed to recent salary increases. Police officials are seeking motivated individuals to join the force and serve the community. Further details about the exam and the department's recruitment efforts are available from the Laredo Police Department.
