Verbatim from Governor Mike Pence

Indianapolis, Ind: Governor Mike Pence today issued the following statement regarding three Indiana law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty in the past week. The Governor will order flags lowered in each officer’s county of residence on the day of his funeral service.

“It is with heavy hearts that we mourn the two Indiana police officers killed in the line of duty in the last 24 hours.
