Deputy Robert Harvey was killed in an automobile accident on CR 2500, at East 88th Street, while responding to a fight in progress call.

The driver of a vehicle traveling in the opposite direction attempted to make a left turn in front of Deputy Harvey's patrol car, and caused a head-on collision.

Deputy Harvey was trapped in his patrol car as it became engulfed in flames. The two occupants of the other vehicle were injured in the crash.

Deputy Harvey joined the Lubbock County Sheriff's Office on his birthday, October 7, 2001. A member of the Texas Tactical Peace Officers Association, Harvey still made time to volunteer as a little league coach. His wife and two sons survive him.

While researching a recent LSO Honor Guard event, I found this page. I wanted to leave a message here, too. Your son, Austin and my daughter, Alexis both attend the same middle school. I was at the Choir Awards Banquet last week. Your son received numerous awards! I just felt like you were looking down and smiling. He was awarded for Citizenship, Leadership, Service, and Musicianship. While I never had the pleasure of meeting you, I think that everyone who knows you would tell me that Austin is a chip off the old block. The awards that he received sounded very similar to all the accounts of you that I ever heard about you. I was just full of joy and sorrow at the same time. I'm sure you know this, but Austin is just a fine young man. God bless you and your family.
