Officer Thomas Edward Goodwin

Officer Goodwin was shot and killed after responding to a shooting call at a mobile-home park. As Officer Goodwin was roping off an area as a crime scene the suspect appeared and opened fire, striking him in the head. He was transported to a local hospital where he later died. The suspect then holed up in his trailer for several hours, holding SWAT teams at bay. He was finally flushed out and arrested after tear gas was fired inside.
