Windsor Police will commemorate the anniversary of a fallen officer with a moment of silence.
18-years-ago today, Windsor Police Senior Constable John Atkinson was killed in the line of duty.
The Windsor Police Service is asking everyone to observe a moment of silence at 2:07 p.m. to remember Atkinson and the sacrifice he made while serving his community.
On May 5, 2006, the 37-year-old Atkinson was shot and killed while investigating a drug deal outside a convenience store near Pillette Road and Seminole Street.
Atkinson left behind a wife and two kids.
Nikkolas Brennan, 18-years-old at the time of the shooting, would be convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison in the case.
