Detective Fraser was shot and killed while pursuing an escaped convict. He followed the man onto a streetcar and as he grabbed him from the behind the man produced a revolver, turned, and shot him in the groin. As Detective Fraser struggled with the man he was shot again in the hand. Another officer who heard the shots rushed to the scene and the two were able to subdue the suspect. Detective Fraser succumbed to his wounds two days later.
Detective Fraser had been with the agency for 20 years and was survived by his wife, daughter, and mother.
