Patrolman Donald Seick was shot and killed when he attempted to question a man while he was off duty. Patrolman Seick was at a gas station when he saw a man walk out of the building very quickly. Suspecting the man had just robbed the service station he followed the man a short distance. When he finally stopped next to the man he asked what he was doing in the service station. The man shot Seick, with the gun still in his jacket pocket; Seick was struck in the chest. The suspect fled the scene but was apprehended several days later and sentenced to life; he was paroled in 1974.
Patrolman Seick was survived by his wife and six children, who were all present when Seick was killed.
