President Donald Trump sent a letter to the family of fallen Cleveland Police Officer David Fahey.
Fahey, 39, was helping to direct traffic at a crash on Interstate 90 west in Cleveland on Jan. 24. Court documents said a Lorain man was speeding when he hit the officer and drove away.
Cleveland Police Patrolmen’s Association President Steve Loomis told Fox8 that the family received Trump’s letter and that this is the first time a U.S. President has reached out to the surviving family of a deceased Cleveland officer during his 24-year history with the force.
“President Trump sending a personal condolence letter to the family of fallen Cleveland Police Officer David Fahey is an act of heartfelt kindness that is appreciated by all law enforcement officers and law abiding citizens everywhere, and will never be forgotten,” Loomis said in a statement on Friday.
