Add to My HeroesEric King Wilson
Officer Eric Wilson was found shot to death in his unmarked car, which was occasionally used to work drug cases, at 11:24 am.
It is believed that Officer Wilson knew the person who killed him because his gun was still buckled in its holster, and his hands were at his side. His car was parked in front of his aunt's house and very near the home of the Chief of Police.
Officer Wilson was a United States Air Force veteran. He is survived by his son and siblings.
