National Police Week is underway, and to honor local officers that have lost their lives in the line of duty, the Hopkinsville Fraternal Order of Police is inviting the community to its annual memorial service on Thursday.
At the memorial service, 10 fallen officers will be honored and Christian County Sheriff Tyler DeArmond will be the keynote speaker. The service will be at 4:30 p.m. at Police Memorial Park, which is behind the Hopkinsville Police Department, and folks are encouraged to bring lawn chairs.
In the event of inclement weather, the service will be moved to the Christian County Justice Center.
