Since records have been kept, more than 24,000 U.S. law enforcement officers nationwide including over 600 Alabama law enforcement personnel have fallen in the line of duty—a somber reminder of the risks they face every day.
Today, we observe Peace Officers Memorial Day. This day honors local, state, and federal law enforcement officers who have died or been disabled while serving in the line of duty. It is a significant occasion to recognize their sacrifices and dedication to public safety. Flags are flown at half-mast from sunrise to sunset in remembrance of those individuals.

In honor of National Police Week, University of North Alabama President Kitts and First Lady Dena presented a beautiful cake to recognize all of the officers who work tirelessly to keep our campus community safe. We sincerely appreciate their continued support and are grateful for their recognition of the dedication and service provided by our officers each day.

In 1962, President Kennedy proclaimed May 15 as National Peace Officers Memorial Day and the calendar week in which May 15 falls, as National Police Week.
National Police Week pays special recognition to those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others.

Stay weather aware!

Wind, wind, and more wind. Our greatest threat tonight is straight line winds. Tornadoes are possible, but we are more concerned about the sustained winds. Secure loose items and we will keep you up to date on the weather. Following tonight's storms, a freeze watch (which will likely become a freeze warning) will be in effect Monday night and Tuesday morning.
