Another one down in the line of duty...
LINK Sheriff's Deputy Killed In Collision With Truck HOUSTON -- A sheriff's deputy was killed in a collision with truck on Thursday, KPRC Local 2 reported. Harris County sheriff's deputies said a box truck left a car dealership, crossed all the lanes of the Katy Freeway eastbound feeder road near Mason Road and hit the on-duty deputy's unmarked sport utility vehicle shortly before 8 p.m. The driver of the box truck was trying to get to the ramp to enter the freeway, deputies said. The deputy's SUV flipped over several times and almost went onto the freeway. Investigators said the deputy was killed instantly. The deputy worked for the investigative support services division. He was returning from an investigative operation in the Copperfield area, officials said. "It's really a very sad, traumatic thing to happen to us and to anybody else," Maj. Juan George said. "We're just terribly sorry that this happened to him." Deputies said their colleague's death reminded them to that their lives could end in an instant. "It's amazing how short our life is and they're talking about getting their things in order and that kind of thing because you never know when something's going to happen, regardless of what kind of work you're in," George said. The sheriff's office has not released the 43-year-old deputy's name. Officials said he was married and had three children. The driver of the box truck, Jose Vieyra, was not injured. He has not been charged in connection with the collision. Sad deal to see this happen like this but I know people die everyday in car accidents because people are to busy doing other things than paying attention. I wish people would drive with their eyes open! The cell phone stuff is getting out of hand too. DRIVE NOW TALK LATER!

It's sad how often we are getting hurt or killed in the line of duty. To all, please be careful. My prayers go out to the families of both of these Deputies.
