In the Line of Fire

Hundreds of police officers and police dogs lined the street outside Detroit’s Ford Field on Wednesday to honor the Wayne State University police officer who was shot and killed last week. Inside the stadium, the officer’s body laid in a casket as one of his own police dogs stood nearby. The officer, Collin Rose, was shot and killed Nov. 22 while conducting a traffic stop in a neighborhood near campus. “As police officers, we’re trained to prepare for any incident, except one: losing a fellow officer in the line of duty,” Anthony Holt, Wayne State’s chief of police, said Thursday during Rose’s funeral.
