Officer Jessica Nagle-Wilson was shot and killed when she responded to an animal complaint at a house on Jarvis Street at 8:48 pm.
As she exited her patrol car, a man standing on the porch suddenly opened fire on her with a shotgun filled with No. 6 birdshot, striking her in the face, neck, and stomach. She was able to return fire and wounded the suspect. Although she was wearing her vest, she suffered fatal wounds and succumbed to her wounds at the hospital.
The suspect was taken into custody at the hospital. The man was convicted of Officer Nagle-Wilson's murder in July 2003 and sentenced to life in prison.
Officer Nagle-Wilson had served with the Hazel Park Police Department for just under two years. She is survived by her husband, who is also a police officer, parents, brother, and sister.

Today, on the 21st anniversary of your passing, I came across your memorial page. I was intrigued to see the large volume of reflections left for you over the years (30 pages). You were certainly much loved and cherished in life, and much missed in death. I'm saddened to read that your life came to an abrupt end due to the cowardly act of another. I will pray for your husband, your family, friends, loved ones and colleagues. Rest in Peace
Greater love has no one than this, that a person will lay down their life for their friends. - John 15:13
