NCPD To Add Three New Officers

The New Canaan Police Department is adding three new officers to its ranks. Brian Buckley, 39, Austin Malizia, 33 and Carlos Prado, 25, will start recruit training April 5 at the Connecticut Police Academy’s 382nd training session in Meriden. The tentative graduation date for that class is during the first week of October, police said in a press release. Buckley, a married Bethel resident, graduated from New Milford High School and earned a bachelor’s degree from Le Moyne College, where he majored in history. 

Malizia, who is engaged, lives in Norwalk with his fiancée and their two children. He’s a New Canaan High School graduate who earned a bachelor’s degree in social work from Southern Connecticut State University.
