Sergeant George Brown was killed in an automobile accident while attempting to stop a vehicle, that was fleeing the scene of a crime, on County Road 341 in Columbia County.

The suspect was convicted of second degree murder in connection with Sergeant Brown's murder and was sentenced to life in prison.
