KSP to remember Trooper Ponder Friday

Kentucky State Police will remember a trooper killed on the job with a wreath laying ceremony on Friday.

Trooper Joseph Cameron Ponder had been on the job less than a year when he was shot to death by a Missouri man in southwestern Kentucky on September 13 of 2015.

The man was later killed by officers.  I-24 in Lyon County between the Caldwell County line and KY Route 293 is now known as the Trooper Joseph Cameron Ponder Memorial Highway.
