HARRISBURG – Pennsylvania Game Commission Wildlife Conservation Officer (WCO) David L. Grove was shot and killed in the line of duty while on patrol around 10:30 p.m., on Nov. 11, along Shrivers Road in Freedom Township, Adams County. Grove, age 31, of Fairfield, Adams County, was investigating reports of ongoing night-time shooting and possible poaching activity in the area.
HARRISBURG – Pennsylvania Game Commission Executive Director Carl G. Roe, on behalf of the entire agency, today offered praise for the Pennsylvania State Police’s swift resolution involving the killing of Wildlife Conservation Officer (WCO) David L. Grove, and to Gov. Edward G. Rendell for directing that the Commonwealth flag be lowered to half-staff in honor of WCO Grove.
“Today’s action by the Pennsylvania State Police and other cooperating law enforcement agencies is characteristic of the professionalism and partnerships that all Pennsylvanians should be proud of,” Roe said. “The State Police truly have lived up to their reputation of being one of the top law enforcement agencies in the world. “We also appreciate Gov. Rendell’s action and condolences for the loss of WCO Grove, who was a dedicated public servant and officer.” Roe noted that the U.S. Marshall’s Office, Game Commission WCOs and Deputy WCOs, and numerous municipal police departments responded to the scene of last nights incident and assisted the State Police in this investigation. |

Copied from Lutherville Volunteer Fire Department's Website.
It is with the deepest sorrow that Lutherville Volunteer Fire Company announces the Line of Duty Death of Firefighter / Paramedic Mark Falkenhan. Mark, just 43-years old, was a devoted husband, and proud father of two sons. Mark died on Wednesday, January 19, 2011 while searching for trapped victims in a four-alarm apartment fire at the Towson Crossing Apartments in Hilendale. Mark was performing search and rescue on the third floor when he was overcome by heavy fire conditions after a flashover occurred. Mark worked for the Secret Service after retiring as a career firefighter from the Baltimore County Fire Department. He was a life member and past Chief of the Middle River Volunteer Ambulance Rescue Company. In addition, Mark was an accomplished and well respected instructor for the Maryland Fire and Rescue Institute. We will miss Mark dearly and our deepest sympathy goes out to Mark’s wife and two sons. Every member of LVFC is hurting after such a tragic accident. Rest in Peace my Brother Brother when you weep for me......... |

Sergeant Tom Baitinger
St. Petersburg Police Department Florida End of Watch: Monday, January 24, 2011 
Police Officer Jeffrey Yaslowitz St. Petersburg Police Department Florida End of Watch: Monday, January 24, 2011 
Sergeant Tom Baitinger and Officer Jeffrey Yaslowitz were shot and killed while attempting to serve a warrant on a suspect wanted for aggravated battery. Several members of a regional task force had gone to the home to question a family member about the man's whereabouts. After making contact with the woman, the officers were informed that the man was in the attic and possibly armed. Officer Yaslowitz, who served on the department's canine unit, had just finished his shift and was en route home when he volunteered to respond to the call. After unsuccessfully attempting to talk the man out of the attic, Officer Yaslowitz and a member of the United States Marshals Service made entry into the attic and were immediately shot. Another officer was able to pull the deputy marshal from the attic but was unable to reach Officer Yaslowitz. The suspect then fired from the attic, striking Sergeant Baitinger who was providing cover from the main level. A SWAT team used a tactical vehicle to breach a wall of the home and came under fire, but was able to recover Officer Yaslowitz. Officer Yaslowitz and Sergeant Baitinger were both transported to a local hospital where they were pronounced dead. The suspect was found dead several hours later after the home was partially dismantled using heavy machinery. Sergeant Baitinger had served with the St. Petersburg Police Department for 15 years. He is survived by his wife. Officer Yaslowitz had served with the St. Petersburg Police Department for 12 years. He is survived by his wife and three children. We all miss you so much. God Bless Brothers.....you will NEVER be forgotten.

I cannot believe I'm am writing this. It is with the heaviest of hearts that I must post that the St. Petersburg Police Department has lost another hero.
Police Officer David S. Crawford St. Petersburg Police Department Florida End of Watch: Monday, February 21, 2011 
Police Officer David Crawford was shot and killed after responding to a report of a suspicious person. At approximately 10:30 pm, Officer Crawford and another officer responded to a report of a suspicious person in the 700 block of 3rd Avenue after a citizen observed a male walking through his backyard with a broken brick in his hand. Officer Crawford canvassed the area and found the subject near the southwest corner of 2nd Avenue S and 8th Street S. He parked his patrol car and approached the male. At some point during the encounter there was an exchange of gunfire and Officer Crawford was shot and wounded. He was not wearing his vest at the time. He was taken to Bayfront Medical Center where he died from his wounds. The suspect fled and after a 24-hour search, a 16-year-old male was arrested and charged with first degree murder. Officer Crawford had served with the St. Petersburg Police Department for 25 years. He is survived by his wife and daughter. Officer David Crawford ODMP Link Dave you will always be a "Midnight Marauder." We all miss you so much and cannot believe we have to lay another brother to rest. You will NEVER be forgotten.

I may wear a patch that says Military Police, but we have a lot in common with our civilian counter parts.
SGT KEICIA M. HINES 108th Military Police Comp Army Sgt. Keicia M. Hines, age 27, of Citrus Heights, California Assigned to the 108th Military Police, Combat Support Co., Fort Bragg, N.C. Died January 14, 2004 when she was struck by a vehicle on Mosul Airfield in Mosul, Iraq. SGT Jeremy M. Campbell 108th Military Police Company 21, of Middlebury, Pennsylvania Campbell died in Baghdad, Iraq, when an improvised explosive device detonated near his HMMWV during patrol operations. He was assigned to the 108th Military Police Company, 503rd Military Police Battalion (Airborne), 16th Military Police Brigade (Airborne), Fort Bragg, North Carolina. Died on September 11, 2005. Specialist Jacob Aaron Jarrell, 21 108th Military Police Company was shot during an altercation Saturday. Military officials say Jarrell was off-duty at the time of the incident. I know all three fine soldiers SPC Jarrell was that MP no matter On or off duty still did his job to make Fort Bragg, NC a little safer of everyone, and like so many of our brothers and sisters behind the badge he helped say two people that night. The Killer was found in Alabama the next day and was returned to Fort Bragg. SGT Hines I had seen here just 15 mins. prior to he death. we were getting ready to turn in our ammo so that we could leave Iraq. We found her on our way back from getting food. She had asked us to grab her a plate so she could get some paperwork done to make our job a little easier when we turned in our ammo. SGT Campbell was like no other soldier I knew. He was always smiling no matter what was going on, weather we were doing a 20 mile Tour De Bragg run at the home station or getting shot at in Iraq. He was always trying to make everyone a better person and a better soldier. on Sept. 11, 2005 my world had changed again. My military service has been one not to forget. As I am writing this right now I know my friends and comrades are placing their life on the line so I can see a better day/night. People should never forget the price any Officer, fireman/fire woman, EMS or any other public service man or woman makes when they are running into the hot zone while others are running away. I salute each and everyone of you(past, present and future) that make this would a little better every day. To all of those who paid the ultimate price in keeping this world in order, I hope to met you when it is my time to go. I hope that I can serve as honorably as you all did, and be half the person you all were. To all present and future public service workers lets honor this Fine people with the hard work and dedication that all of these fallen comrades have shown. Lets not forget nor allow anyone to forget their life stories and thier bravory that has been shown day in and day out by all fallen comrades. (plz replace with the flag you hold dear to your hearts and lets all fly them at half mass in our hearts) |

My Brother-In-Law was friends with Officer Schmidt - I had never met him or anything, but I still feel that this is something that should be posted. His last actions were to save the life of his sergeant. He leaves behind a wife and 3 kids. Very sad occurrence.
"Officer Jonathan Schmidt, from Trumann, Arkansas, shoved his superior out of harms way when a gunman unexpectedly opened fire during a routine arrest." "Schmidt recently received a commendation for saving an infant's life by giving the child mouth-to-mouth resuscitation." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1376729/Police-officer-hailed-hero-sacrificing-life-save-sergeant-shoot-out.html#ixzz1Jc10Fp4s http://www.kait8.com/story/14435936/officer-involved |

Officer killed on the job leaves behind wife, 2 children
Photos Const. Garrett Styles is shown in this photo made available by the York Regional Police service. View Larger Image Transcript of Const. Styles' last call[/url] Condolences for Const. Styles [/url] ctvtoronto.ca Date: Tuesday Jun. 28, 2011 5:38 PM ET A dedicated York Regional Police officer and father of two young children died Tuesday morning after being struck by a vehicle and pinned underneath during a traffic stop. Const. Garrett Styles pulled over a Dodge Caravan with four youth inside at Herald Road and Highway 48 in the town of East Gwillimbury just before 5 a.m., York Regional Police Chief Eric Jolliffe said at a press conference Tuesday afternoon. Joliffe said that Styles was at the driver-side door when the vehicle accelerated, dragging him about 300 metres. The 15-year-old unlicenced driver lost control of the vehicle, rolling it over and pinning Styles underneath. The 32-year-old officer, who would have turned 33 on Sunday, was transported to hospital where he succumbed to his injuries at 6:10 a.m. Sources told CTV News that Styles was able to call for help on his two-way radio. Jolliffe appeared distraught as he spoke to reporters, describing Styles as a dedicated officer who loved what he did. "His supervisors spoke of him as a dedicated, professional, hard-working officer who always had time to assist others," said Jolliffe. "He was well-liked among his peers and he loved being a police officer." Police said the teenaged driver of the vehicle, from York Region, has been transported to hospital with serious injuries. The three passengers, also youths, are co-operating with police. Styles is survived by his wife, Melissa, a civilian employee of the York Regional Police Service, and two small children, a two-year-old girl and nine-week-old boy. A family of officers Styles came from a police family: His father is retired Staff Sgt. Gary Styles, his cousin is a constable in York Regional's 2 District and his wife works in the force's information management department. Styles was a seven-year veteran of the force. He joined York Regional Police in December 2003 and became a constable in May 2004. He covered the towns of Newmarket, Aurora and East Gwillimbury. He had also just wrote a promotional exam to become a sergeant, passing with an 82 per cent. Jolliffe told reporters outside Southlake Regional Health Centre in Newmarket, Ont. on Tuesday morning that Styles was "competent and capable" and his family would appreciate time to "collect themselves." Officers were seen hugging and crying at the scene where a smashed up grey minivan still lies in a field beside the highway. The York Regional Police Homicide Unit and officers with the Collision Reconstruction Unit are investigating. Canine teams are also being used to search the fields. Highway 48 is currently closed in both directions between Mount Albert Road and Davis Drive. The closure is expected to remain in affect for the day, authorities said in a statement. ‘A stark reminder' of the dangers Durham Regional Police Chief Constable Mike Ewles said in a statement that the death of Style's is a "stark reminder of how dangerous a job" it is and "how officers put their lives on the line every day for the safety of the community." Condolences have also been pouring out through social media. Toronto Police tweeted, "R.I.P. Officer. You are a "Hero in Life, Not Death." Thank you for your service." Flowers and hand-written messages are also being left at York Regional Police's 1 District Headquarters , where the flags are at half-mast. Styles is the 10th York Region police officer to die on the job. The last York Region police officer to be killed in the line of duty was also struck and pinned by a fleeing vehicle. Det.-Const. Robert Plunkett was killed in August 2007 while investigating a series of airbag thefts. The man accused in the incident was found guilty of manslaughter in April. The sentencing for that case is scheduled for Wednesday. Last winter, Toronto Sgt. Ryan Russell was stuck and killed while trying to stop a snowplow allegedly stolen by a drifter. This is also the second recent incident in which a police officer suffered injuries in the line of duty. On June 22, a Peterborough-Lakefield Police Constable was shot in the leg and chest during a drug raid on a suspected crack-house. Const. Keith Calderwood was released from a Toronto hospital this weekend. He is now resting at home. "Police officers put their lives on the line each and every day when they leave their families to protect others," Jolliffe told reporters on Tuesday. "Their selfless sacrifice and hard work ensures our communities are safe places to live and raise a family. Every man and woman who answers the call of policing understands that he or she lives facing ever-present uncertainty and risk." Garrett will be sorely missed. Mark |

R.I.P. Asheville, NC firefighter Captain Jeff Bowen
Capt. Jeff Bowen was among the first firefighters to reach the 445 Biltmore Center medical office building as flames shot out fifth-floor windows, and he had one thing in mind — find anyone left inside. Heavy smoke filled that top floor, where he and fellow firefighter Jay Bettencourt were searching Thursday afternoon. There was no sprinkler system to help calm the blaze. Then something went wrong. Bowen called “mayday” over the radio, a distress signal that sent rescuers scrambling to find him. The 13-year-veteran of the city Fire Department — a husband and father of three — died after being rushed out of the Biltmore Avenue building and on to nearby Mission Hospital. He was 37 Article HERE |
