Just checked and it looks like this is the 17th officer killed in the line of duty this years.

One thing that worried me about moving home to Indiana in a couple years is I would be trading one place with a serious meth problem for another.

They’re keeping him on life support because he donated some internal organs.

Thanks for the heads up.

I checked other articles that didn’t mention it but just saw one that did.

God bless him and his family.

Hard to get away from that anywhere it seems. My ex BIL just died 10 days ago in Phoenix from 30 years of meth and heavy alcohol use.

Also had a heroin OD last week here in IN of someone I knew. Not a friend of my son, but grew up at the same time here. Had no clue he was into that crap
