😢😢😢

Yesterday at 4:40 pm, after completing a call for service, Officer Nicholas McDaniel failed to respond to a status check from our Communications Center. Officers were dispatched to Officer McDaniel’s last known location, where they found him slumped over the wheel of his police vehicle. The officers on scene immediately started CPR until Kootenai County Fire & Rescue arrived on scene and transported Officer McDaniel to Kootenai Medical Center where he was pronounced deceased. The cause of death has been determined to be a massive heart attack.

Officer McDaniel was 36 years old and had worked for the Post Falls Police Department for a little under a year, with 13 years served previously in Hawaii. I would like to thank all the surrounding law enforcement, fire, and medical agencies, as well as our local community, for their unwavering support while our department mourns the loss of a family member.

Please keep Officers McDaniel’s fiancé and children in your thoughts and prayers as they try to cope with the loss of their loved one.

*Press Release from Post Falls Police

So sorry to hear this, prayers to the officer's family and friends.

Make sure your voice gets heard, if you don't speak up you have no right to complain when they put up more apartments and our schools are more crowded and our streets more congested.
