Reports from several sources state that the second officer has also passed.

This is the kind of news that we all hate to hear about.

Our police officers have a very, very dangerous job out there.

We pray.
"PLEASE LORD watch over all of our police officers as they perform their duties to protect all of us"

The perp was on an ankle monitoring bracelet that was later removed under a judge's order. He was a parole absconder and had armed burgulary and carjacking cases pending. The SAFE-T ACT @ work! The 2 officers were 10 and 21 year CPD veterans.
