Officer Freddie Norman succumbed to injuries sustained 21 years earlier when his patrol car was struck by a teenage drunk driver as he responded to an emergency call. The accident left him as a quadriplegic. His death was determined to be a direct result of the injuries sustained in the crash.
The drunk driver was sentenced to six months in a halfway house and was forbidden from ever holding a Georgia driver's license.
Officer Norman is survived by his wife, three daughters, and three grandsons.
