A recruit died after getting sick following a physical training session, agency officials said Wednesday.
Dorbor Mulbah started at the training academy in January and was set to graduate in May, Sheriff Elias Diggins said in a statement.
Mulbah “expressed discomfort and became unwell” after physical training on Tuesday, the sheriff said. Academy staff started life-saving measures until Denver Fire Department crews and paramedics arrived and took him to the hospital.
Mulbah died Wednesday morning, the sheriff’s department said.
The DSD’s administrative investigative unit will investigate Mulbah’s death “as a matter of protocol,” Diggins said.
” We have deployed wellness and mental health resources for the Academy cadre, to include the recruits,” he said.
