Hi, I am the mother of Christopher Fitzgerald, I want to ensure you have the correct information. Our son Christopher graduated the Philadelphia police academy in June of 2018 and began working for the Philadelphia Housing Authority prior to the Sheriff’s office. He served just under 5 years as a police officer and had been in LE since he was 20 years working as a jailer for Sugar Land PD TX and as a Lehigh County PA Corrections Officer. Not only is my Husband, his father a Police Chief so am I (his mother Pauline). Both my husband and I are also retired from the Philadelphia PD. Being a police officer is our family business.

Thank you for your post. We are so proud of our son and his career.

Be Safe!

Chris or "Fitz" as we all knew him was a guy of outstanding character. A great cop and a grear friend. In the short time I knew him he inspired me to always keep pushing forward despite the circumstances. His impact will always be treasured. We will never forget

On behalf of the International Police Mountain Bike Association (IPMBA), I offer our deepest sympathy to the family, friends, and colleagues of Sergeant Fitzgerald. Christopher attended the IPMBA Police Cyclist Course conducted by Dave Dager in June 2022. In Dave's words, Christopher was "the best". Godspeed, Christopher. Keep on pedaling.

As the daughter of a retired Philadelphia police sergeant, and the mother of a current Temple student, I’m heartbroken for Sgt. Fitzgerald’s loved ones. So senseless for this young man to be killed that way. RIP, Sgt. Fitzgerald. Thank you for your service to our city and our children at Temple. May you rest in grace and love, and shine down on all who knew and loved you.
