Boston – According to I-Team sources, a Massachusetts State Police trooper trainee sustained serious injuries during a boxing training exercise on Thursday.
According to sources, the recruit was unconscious for over ten minutes after being struck in the head. The recruit was rushed to a Worcester hospital in critical condition.
Boxing is part of the physical training program at the Massachusetts State Police Academy in New Braintree. The recruits fight each other in a genuine boxing ring.
According to the state police website, applicants in training attend a 25-week, modified-stress, live-in school that offers 90 distinct courses of instruction. The most recent class began in April and is known as the 90th RTT.
WBZ attempted to contact the Massachusetts State Police and the union for comment but did not receive an immediate response.
