He left Constable Flora unconscious and fled the scene. Constable Flora regained consciousness and called for assistance. He was transported to a hospital where he succumbed to his wounds.
The subject was apprehended shortly after the shooting. The car that had wrecked had been stolen by the juvenile earlier in the day. The 17-year-old boy was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison.

View all 60 ReflectionsToday is your day! Had things not have happened today you would be 97 years old. I often wonder what you would have been like as you aged & the thing that gets me is that "wondering" is all I get to do. Happy Birthday Pa! You are loved today just as much as you were on your birthday in 1990! My heart hurts more each year though because of the "wondering"
