Officer down, Zachary PD, Louisiana
Reserve Officer Chris Lawton was killed yesterday after being intentionally struck by a vehicle as he attempted to serve a narcotics-related felony warrant.
He and another officer had spotted the wanted subject inside a U-Haul truck parked at the Walmart on Plank Road, in Baker, Louisiana. After observing the subject for several minutes the officers parked their patrol car behind the truck and began to approach it on foot. The subject saw them walking alongside the truck and started to drive away, pinning Officer Lawton between the truck and a shopping cart corral. Officer Lawton's partner was able to broadcast a description of the vehicle, which was located approximately 20 minutes later. The driver was arrested and charged with first-degree murder, hit and run, and being a fugitive from justice. A second occupant of the vehicle was charged with obstruction of justice. Officer Lawton served as a part-time, unpaid reserve officer with Zachary Police Department and also served as a full-time firefighter with the Zachary Fire Department. Godspeed my brother, we’ll see you on the other side. Rest easy.
