Patrolman Hugh Weldon Willoughby

I am in total agreement that there should be a memorial of him in the 26 PCT . The line of duty death took place in the confines of the 34 PCT address 501 West 166 Street. I was able to look at the 34 PCT‘s blotter books in 2018 regarding PTL Willoughby’s line of duty death . The hand writing in the 34 Blotter book is very hard to read . It appears there was a robbery in a liquor store. Right after the perpetrator left Patrolman Willoughby Who was off duty at the time ( and lived in the neighborhood ) entered the store and was told about the robbery. Patrolman Willoughby got a hold of the perpetrator . At some point shortly after the perpetrator shot and killed patrolman Willoughby. There is not as much information in the 26 PCT’s blotter book. I would like his family should see a memorial dedicated to him.
