Fort Worth Police Department recruitment video adds to their force with their new "Wookie" officer

FORT WORTH, Texas -- The Fort Worth Police Department is casting a much wider net in their recruitment efforts, even to a galaxy far far away.

In a video they posted to Facebook, the department claims they've found a place in their force for Chewbacca.

It's proving to be very popular as nearly 800,000 people have watched it, and over 13,000 people have shared it.

One of the top comments is from someone thanking the police department for adding in subtitles so they knew what the mighty Chewbacca was saying.
