In Texas, law enforcement individuals put their lives on the line for the safety and protection of others every day. Most serve with unwavering commitment, professionalism, valor, and distinction. Sadly in 2024, Texas lost 4 law enforcement individuals in the Line of duty. A total of 2,247 Texas law enforcement individuals and 30 K9s overall have been killed in the line of duty in the State of Texas.
We invite you to learn more about our law enforcement heroes and join the Texas Police Trainers in honoring and remembering them. You can also click www.odmp.org to find all the Texas fallen heroes.
They put their lives on the line for us every day even at the risk of losing their own life.
