BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – It seems all too surreal, but on Monday, as the sun began to shine on “National Law Enforcement Officer Day” and “Florida First Responder Week” two Central Florida Law Enforcement Officers were killed in the line of duty.
While our thoughts and prayers are with the agencies and families of our fallen heroes, their loss serves as a constant reminder of how dangerous a job being a Law Enforcement Officer is.
A somber reminder that our Law Enforcement Officers put their lives on the line each and every day to protect our community and that life no matter how great, is fragile and not guaranteed.
The above video from various leaders and business owners in our community truly puts into perspective how much our citizens appreciate our Brevard County Sheriff’s Office and its members.
