COHOES, N.Y. (NEWS10) -- Three police personnel received new assignments and four firefighters were sworn in in Cohoes on Wednesday at Cohoes City Hall. Briana Bowen was sworn in as Cohoes' second female firefighter in the city's history.
"It's extra meaningful for me," said Bowen. "I'm very proud to say I'm the second female firefighter in the City of Cohoes. Hopefully, it opens the floodgates and there's a bunch more to follow."
