Trooper Marty Mack and Trooper Branden Sisca were struck and killed by a suspected drunk driver near mile marker 18 on southbound I-95 in Philadelphia, shortly before 1:00 am on March 21, 2022.
They had stopped a female driver for speeding and had interacted with her for less than one minute when they were notified of a pedestrian walking along the interstate. Due to their short interaction before being dispatched to the higher priority pedestrian call, the troopers had not observed any signs of impairment before giving her a warning. They then responded to the pedestrian call and located the man on the interstate. They were assisting him into the back of their patrol vehicle when an approaching car drove by and attempted to pass the police vehicle on the shoulder. The vehicle fatally struck both troopers and the pedestrian they were assisting. Read More...

“How far that little candle throws his beams! So shines a good deed in a weary world.” – William Shakespeare. The quote dates back to 1600, but it is quite relevant today.
Today, we live in a weary world. Thank you all for being the light. I promise you; your good deeds change the world every day.
As Law Enforcement Officers, you know the grim statistics that illustrate the true crisis we are experiencing surrounding drunken and drugged driving in this country. While the numbers don’t lie, they don’t do justice to the calls you have worked, the sights you have seen, the hands you have held and the loss you have felt. Read More...
