Colorado cop who graduated from Rock Bridge killed on duty
COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)
A Rock Bridge High School graduate who was serving with the Golden Police Department in Colorado was killed in the line of duty last week, the Columbia Police Department said Thursday on its social media.
Officer Evan Alexander Dunn was killed in a crash on Nov. 6, according to KMGH in Denver. Columbia police wrote that Dunn graduated from Rock Bridge in 2010 before graduating from Columbia College in 2015. He was commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Missouri Army National Guard, commanded missions as an Army aviator and flew Black Hawk helicopters, the post reads.
He and his wife moved to the Denver area in 2021, where he served as a captain in the Colorado National Guard, the post says. He graduated from the police academy and became an officer this year. His obituary says that a private service would be held, but a celebration of life ceremony will be held in Columbia later.
