Fallen Officer Michael Louviere a Was War Veteran and Father of 2

January 20, 2017 by 911media

fallen-officer-michael-louviere-war-veteran-father-of-2Westwego police officer Michael Louviere, who was shot in the head and killed while responding to an incident in Marrero on Friday morning (Jan. 20), was a U.S. Marine who served in Afghanistan before joining the police force in July 2015, Westwego Police Chief Dwayne Munch said.

Louviere, a 26-year-old father of two young children who lived in Marrero, graduated first in his class from the Kenner Police Academy, where he won multiple awards, Munch said during a press conference. Delivering the news of his death to Louviere’s wife at the hospital Friday morning was “one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do,” Munch said.

“This was a cold-blooded murder,” Munch added.

According to Munch, Louviere ended his shift at 6 a.m. Friday and was headed home on Ames Boulevard when the officer saw what he thought was a traffic accident near the intersection with Barataria Boulevard and stopped to help. Louviere was in full uniform when he was shot, Munch said.

On April 26, 2025, Deputy Sheriff Brandon Sikes of the Columbia County (GA) Sheriff’s Office was killed in the line of duty.

Deputy Sheriff Sikes and his partners were serving a domestic violence protective on a subject. At some point, the savage engaged the deputies in a gunfight, mortally wounding Deputy Sheriff Sikes.

Brandon was 31 years old and had been a cop for nearly seven years. He also served our country in the U.S. Army. He is survived by his wife, daughter, parents, siblings and nephew.

Godspeed, brother.

Great news on this important legislation that amends the existing Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA) to allow officers to carry in the same venues where civilian concealed carry permit holders are permitted.

In honor of National Peace Officers Memorial Day, we pay tribute to the fallen heroes of the LVMPD, North Las Vegas P.D. and Henderson P.D. who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our communities. We also remember and honor the federal, state, county, municipal, military, tribal and campus law enforcement officers across the country who gave their lives while upholding the thin blue line. We will never forget.
