A Hit Wizard is a highly trained wizard tasked with arresting dangerous criminals. Entry requirements are five OWLs including Defence Against the Dark Arts. Applicants for the job must be over the age of seventeen. Once accepted, they are taught defensive charms and counter-curses, and how to restrain criminals without attracting the attention of Muggles. Hit Wizards start on a salary of seven hundred Galleons a month, and are provided with a broomstick and have a bed reserved at St Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. A team of Hit Wizards arrested Sirius Black in 1981 when he was thought to have murdered Peter Pettigrew and twelve Muggles.
