INDIANA



^ Lt Aaron Allan, of the Southport Police Department, was killed while responding to a call about a crash with people trapped inside a vehicle.

The six year veteran, who had more than 20 years of law enforcement experience, was shot multiple times.

Southport Police Chief Thomas Vaughn said: 'Lt Allan was a hard worker and today was no different. He responded to a crash with urgency to preserve life and tragically his was lost. 'We appreciate the community support as we continue to work through the loss of our brother.'

Two other officers at the scene, including one who was off-duty at the time, returned fire, striking a person inside the vehicle, Adams said.

That person and a second person injured in the crash were hospitalized and in custody with non-life-threatening injuries. Police did not release their names or discuss a motive for the shooting.

RIP Lt Aaron Allan.
