RIP Patrolman Melvin Santiago.
Such a young soul to lose in the line of duty. My condolences to his family, and may their thoughts only be filled with wonderful memories of his life.

"Lord give us courage to carry on, to still live and care,
To not be vengeful or bitter, to simply trust Your word it true.
May we always cover with pride the shield we wear,
To honor all fallen officers, whom we now commend to you."
