Add to My HeroesGerald E. Doll
Sergeant Gerald E. Doll was shot and killed during a traffic stop.
He spotted a station wagon speeding north on N. Cicero Avenue and pursued the vehicle until it stopped at the corner of W. Shakespeare Avenue. As Sergeant Doll approached the vehicle the driver produced a sawed off-shotgun and fired at point-blank range. Sergeant Doll was fatally wounded in the attack. The gunman and his female companion then fled into an alley. Another officer who had joined the vehicle pursuit followed the two, shooting as he ran. He then returned to help Sergeant Doll.
The woman was found by police minutes later in a garage, seriously wounded. The man was discovered early the next morning in a gangway, dead from gunshot wounds.
Sergeant Doll was a U.S. Army veteran and had served with the Chicago Police Department for 11 years. He was survived by his expectant wife and four children.
