In July Ashland Police Department officially welcomed its newest member, Officer Edward Sena to the team. The swearing-in was conducted by Town Manager Michael Herbert and attended by Sena's family, friends, and fellow officers, marking a proud and memorable milestone for both the officer and the community.

Officer Sena joins the department following his recent graduation from the Quinsigamond Community College Police Academy, where he trained as a self-sponsored candidate. He also holds a bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, underscoring his commitment to serving and protecting with a strong academic and professional foundation.

Before taking on full patrol duties, Officer Sena will complete a 12-week field training program designed to prepare him for the responsibilities of patrolling and responding to the needs of Ashland residents.

Residents are encouraged to extend a warm welcome when they see Officer Sena around town. Whether it’s a quick hello or a friendly wave, every gesture helps strengthen the bond between the community and those who serve it. Welcome to Ashland, Officer Sena!
