The City of Burlington Police Department is proud to congratulate Officer Najah Pruden on being recognized as our 2025 Trenton Thunder Hometown Hero.
 
Officer Pruden began his career with the City of Burlington Police Department in 2019 as a full-time police officer. In July 2024, he expanded his role by joining the SWAT team, where he responds to high-risk situations and helps ensure the safety of our community. A Burlington native, Officer Pruden takes great pride in giving back to the city he calls home. He volunteers as a youth basketball coach and is dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of young people.
 
We invite you to join us in honoring Officer Pruden and the rest of this year’s Hometown Heroes on Thursday, June 26 at Trenton Thunder Ballpark. The opening ceremony will take place at 6:15 p.m., with the game starting at 7:00 p.m.
