Park Police Assist In Local Officer Shooting Incident (NPS Digest)
On the afternoon of Wednesday, February 27th, the U.S. Park Police Aviation Unit responded to an ‘officer down’ call in nearby Alexandria, Virginia. A motorcycle officer there had been shot while making a traffic stop in the Old Town section of Alexandria. The assailant then drove away, leaving the officer lying in the street. Eagle 1, the Park Police helicopter, was on scene within minutes and flew the wounded officer to a local hospital, where doctors treated him for life-threatening injuries. Meanwhile, officers from several jurisdictions, including the Park Police, pursued the assailant and apprehended him after he crashed his vehicle. The officer remains in critical condition in the hospital.
Contact Information
NRTI as we knew it is no more, and I don't know what will happen in the future. Technically, I'm still employed by the College, though am enjoying a paid hiatus, and working on everything I couldn't work on when I was spending 70 hours a week running the Program, like cleaning up from the tornado that hit, what, 7 years ago now? I'm also commissioned with a nearby county agency, actually answering to one of the more popular instructors, so I'm still trying to keep my hand in.
I'll continue to post information and news from grads and friends, and also want to keep current with LE news and references.
My College phone and e-mail are pretty much out of service, so I'll be setting up yet another account , so we can stay in touch.
