The New Orleans Police Department has two new majors for the first time in 20 years.
The promotions had been put on hold last fall pending an investigation after city officials expressed concern about possible bias in the selection process.
Preliminary findings from the probe found the claims to be baseless.
The promotion of the two new majors took place on Monday, along with the promotions of other officers to captain, lieutenant, and sergeant.
