As a former Norfolk, Va. police officer and having a brother in the Va. Beach police force, this death has hit very close to home. My heart goes out to Rodney's family. I just got off the phone with my brother, Officer Erwin Aguirre, and he had only fond memories of Rodney. How Rodney would play catch with his son, my nephew, during football games. May the city of Va. Beach and the nation never forget the ultimate sacrifice Rodney made for his community.

The cities of Portsmouth and Virginia Beach are neighbors, separated by less than 15 miles. Officer Pocceschi is not only a brother in blue, but close enough that we feel this loss too.
