A sad day in Nebraska. R.I.P. officer Orozco!

[HuskerNationNick]

There is to much violence in Omaha! My prayers to this officer and her family as she was last reported as in critical condition! Suspect is also in critical condition.

 

A couple law enforcement officers I know, have stated that she didn't make it. Nothing has been reported as of yet! I am hoping they are wrong!

Thoughts and prayers to the family.

 

I hope she fights through but the fact they were giving her CPR on the way to the hospital isnt a good sign.

 

 

Will wait for actual news before I assume though.

 

I see there is a press conference at 5:15.

Yeah, that is when they will have one. There are tweets out from some OPD officers saying along the lines "Worst news I have gotten". Just a report that KETV gave, but they said they aren't saying anything until they have confirmation.

Prayers to the family. Officers risk their lives every day to keep us all safe. Thank you to all those who do.

Small effing world! I use to play basketball with her down at Hanscom Park back in the day. Way too young, and an uncalled for death. My prayers are with her family, friends and OPD.

Wait till you learn more about her. Volunteered everywhere. Friends with everyone. Her premature baby was about to go home from the hospital....TOMORROW.

 

This is really bothering me.

I didnt know officer Orozco.

 

She was taken from this world by a dangerous criminal that she swore to keep off the streets. Her heroic actions and the actions of her partner took a criminal off the streets of Omaha. Sadly her life was also taken.

 

She died doing her job and keeping the streets of Omaha(my former home) safe.

 

As the son of an officer, this stuff hits home. My heart aches for her family, her friends and her fellow officers.

 

 

Thank you Officer Kerrie Orozco. May your soul rest in peace.
