Tucson Police Officer Erik Hite succumbed
to injuries he sustained in the line of duty. His death is a tragic reminder of the risks our police officers, and other first responders take every day to keep our communities and our families safe.
The past few years have unfortunately numbed many to such tragedies. When someone pays the ultimate price of service right here in our community, we are all reminded of the honor due all who serve, and the sacrifices they and their families make on our behalf.
The TPOA has set up a fund, which is accepting public donations, to help Officer Hite’s family:
TPOA/Officer

You don’t actually need the account number to make a donation, just say it’s for Officer Hite’s Family. You can stop in at any local Wells Fargo branch to make a donation. Please spread the word.
