The death of a Policeman is always tragic, and unfortunately this incident shows that at any time we can be called "home" , regardless of the type of call for service , injury or illness we currently battle. I pray for all the families involved and know that in each instance, these brave souls did what they thought was right and for that, their courage is an example for all to follow.
