Two probationary police officers have resigned after just one day on the job in Norwalk after information regarding their past in Bridgeport came to light.
Officials say one of the officers was on the scene during a police-involved shooting, but cleared of any wrongdoing. The other was hit with a civil lawsuit for excessive force following a now-infamous community meeting at Success Village.
Norwalk stopped short of accusing the officers of misrepresenting themselves, saying each went through the standard hiring process including polygraph tests.
