Almost twenty years ago, Indiana and Illinois operated as one chapter, Illiana C.O.P.S. Meetings and functions supporting survivors were held together. In November of 1997 Indiana began the process of forming their own chapter holding their first meeting at the Indianapolis Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #86. The charter for Indiana C.O.P.S. was signed by National C.O.P.S. during National Police Week 1998. Indiana C.O.P.S. has steadily grown over the years and now serves over 800 survivors, and those survivors are foremost in our thoughts and actions as we move toward the future.

A Fallen Hero
 | Officer Brent Long Police Officer Brent Long was shot and killed as he and other officers served a felony warrant at a house at approximately 3:30 pm. A task force comprised of officers from the United States Marshals Service, Indiana State Police and Terre Haute Police Department, including Officer Long, knocked on the back door of the house on North 8th Street to serve a felony warrant. Several people exited the house, but not the wanted suspect. As the officers made entry into the home the suspect opened fire on them as they proceeded down a hallway, striking Officer Long and his canine, Shadow. The suspect was shot and killed by return fire. Officer Long was transported to Union Hospital where he succumbed to his wounds. Shadow was taken to a veterinary clinic and is expected to recover. Officer Long had served with the Terre Haute Police Department for six years. He is survived by his wife, 11-year-old daughter, and 10-month-old son. (Source O.D.M.P. -http://odmp.org) |
