Phoenix Police Department in Memoriam
We honor and remember those who we have lost in the line of duty. Annually the Phoenix Police Department holds a memorial ceremony prior to the National Police Week Events.
To learn more about the fallen, please click on their photo to watch a memorial video. A playlist of all the videos is available on the Phoenix Police Department YouTube channel.
The Phoenix Police historical markers to honor our fallen are scattered throughout the valley. These markers are hung on the one-year anniversary as a reminder of the sacrafice that was made.
Phoenix Police have lost five canines in the line of duty.
