Police Officer Stephen Plum suffered a fatal heart attack after having responded to a mutual aid request involving a barricaded subject in the 1300 block of Nevarc Road in Warminster Township during his previous shift.

Following the barricade, Officer Plum responded to several additional non-routine calls and conducted daily performance training with his canine partner.

Officer Plum was preparing for work on the morning of May 16th, 2022, when he suffered a fatal attack and collapsed.
