Englewood Police Department

14 years ago, Detective Jeremy Bitner lost his life in the line of duty on May 28, 2012.

During his eight years with the Englewood Police Department, Detective Bitner served in patrol, as a SWAT team member, and as a Field Training Officer. A U.S. Army Veteran, he was known for his integrity, courage, and unwavering commitment to serving others.

Jeremy loved being a police officer and serving his community. He is remembered as a devoted husband, father, son, brother, and friend whose impact continues to be felt every day.

Although his watch ended in 2012, his legacy lives on through the work of the , founded in his honor. Since its inception, the organization has supported the families of 25 fallen officers from agencies across Colorado.

Jeremy’s life was defined by service — to his country, his community, and his family. His legacy continues to inspire us to support those who sacrifice so much, and to stand beside the families left behind. 💙

Each year, this event brings LE communities together to celebrate and support these incredible athletes and the determination they represent. It was an honor to carry the Flame of Hope and stand alongside athletes who inspire us every day. 😎
