Remembering Palm Springs

October 9, 2016 by 911media

remembering-palm-springs

This news leaves all members of Law Enforcement with heavy hearts. While I know we have a dangerous job, it never justifies the loss of life. These officers were trying to resolve a domestic dispute and simply HELP PEOPLE! I am so sorry for their families losses. Please remember them in your thoughts and prayers. This type of violence against Law Enforcement needs to stop. A family waiting to spend much earned time with their husband, father and grandfather and a young family looking forward to growing with their mom have both been stripped of that right and now only have memories of their loved ones. For all of our members of Law Enforcement here in Las Vegas, please be safe and do everything in your power to go home at the end of every shift. And never forget to tell those that you love how much they mean to you before you head in to work. –Steve Grammas

It’s about time, and this should be happening everywhere!

On June 8, 2025, Police Officer Gabriel Facio of the Apache Junction (AZ) Police Department was killed in the line of duty.

While investigating a road rage incident on June 2, Officer Facio was shot by the suspect who was initially cooperative but later retrieved a handgun and engaged officers in a gunfight.

Gabriel was 46 years old and had been a cop for four years. He is survived by his wife, children, grandchildren and parents.

Godspeed, brother.
