Remember the Fallen: In Remembrance of Pierce County Sheriff's Department Deputy Daniel McCartney #484

Last night, the Pierce County Sheriff's Department tragically lost one of their deputies after a deputy was shot and killed while pursuing several subjects involved on a residential burglary call in Frederickson. Deputy Daniel McCartney, a 3-year veteran of the agency, sadly succumbed to his injuries at Saint Joseph's Hospital in Tacoma. One subject is killed and another is still on the loose. McCartney previously served in the U.S. Navy and was a police officer in Hoquiam for six years. He leaves behind his wife and three young boys.

 

Every law enforcement officer put on their uniform, their ballistic vest, and their gun; knowing that they might not be able to return home safely. Their job atmosphere is often unforgiving with some people who don't give a crap of what they do and a constant element of risk from getting hit by a car to being stabbed or shot at. I understand it all and I will support law enforcement all the way regardless of how everyone else thinks. Rest easy brother. We'll take the watch from here. #rememberthefallen #resteasybrother #watchyoursix #endofwatch
