Dallas Looses an Officer

Senior Cpl. Smith Senior Cpl. Smith A police officer was shot and killed, while trying to issue a warrant for the arrest of felon. This officer was 2 days short of being with the Police Department for 18 years. He was presently assigned to the "Gang Unit". The Dallas City Police Department, has been devastated, by this loss. Officer Norman,(43) was married to a Dallas Police officer and he and his wife have 2 children. Today, are the funeral services for him, and the local TV stations, are carrying it live, to show support for the police of our city. Many people have come forward with stories about how, he as a Cop worked with them and helped them get out of gangs and restore their lives, to being a better person. A candlelight vigil and memorial was held last night, for the fallen officer and his patrol car has been adorned with flowers and made into a memorial in front of the Police Station. Flags are flying half mast at the City, County and Federal buildings in the city and suburban areas of Dallas County. Our prayers are with his family, friends and co-workers...........
