Officer Neil Krantz was killed in an automobile accident while responding to a robbery call. He and his partner were responding on North Saginaw Street and collided with a fire truck. Both emergency vehicles had their sirens sounding which prevented the drivers from hearing the other vehicle. Officer Krantz was a passenger in the patrol car and was killed. His partner and four firefighters were injured.

Officer Krantz had served with the Flint Police Department for 6 months and was survived by his wife and son.

I was doing a Google search for the Flint Police Department and came across Officer Neil Krantz's picture and the related story of his family's reflections on his death 50 years later in 2001. I visit this site regularly and if it is at all possible, I try to include pictures of fallen officers. I lived in Flint, MI from 1971 to 1984 and for the last seven years I lived only three blocks from where Officer Krantz was killed. Officer Krantz, thank you for your service to Flint.
