The North Carolina Troopers Association is making an immediate contribution to the widow of Highway Patrolman Kevin K. Conner who was slain October 17 during a traffic stop. 

“It is with a sad and very heavy heart that we mourn the loss of NC Trooper Kevin K. Conner, an 11 year veteran of our force. Trooper Conner was shot and killed on the morning of October 17th in Columbus County” said NC Trooper Accociation President Daniel Jenkins. Trooper Conner was assigned to Troop B in Columbus County.

 

Jenkins continued, “Tragedies like these demonstrate that no stop we make is ever routine. NC Troopers have one of the highest line-of-duty death rates in the nation and one of the very highest on the East Coast. Yet every day, Heroes like Trooper Conner suit up and still do their job protecting the general public and do so without hesitation. Today’s loss is truly a tragic one. He’ll be missed by many. Trooper Conner, rest easy Brother, we have it from here.”

 

For information on making donations to support the Trooper’s Assocation on behalf of the Conner family, donations can be made by credit card online at  www.nctroopers.org or  checks can be mailed to PO Box 840 Summerfield NC 27358
