On Sept 17, 2025 3 detectives were killed in a stalking case
Spring Grove vigil for the officers who died on Wednesday, Sept. 17, 2025.” This is one of Pennsylvania’s deadliest days for police this century according to AP news”. Those 3 police officers/detectives will forever be engraved in our hearts as heroes and also putting people first and themselves second. “They had saved lives before and, a prosecutor said, were doing that again when they walked into an ambush as they searched for a 24 year old man wanted in a stalking case”. The department’s chief, Dave Lash said the men “represented the best of policing”. They fought and served with professionalism, dedication, perseverance and courage all were fathers, leaving behind wives and eight kids combined.
Those who know them recalled them as devoted to their communities, also being brave and not knowing when to quit in the eyes of justice and their community. The police officers are as follows, Mark Baker, Cody Becker and Isaiah Emenheiser. Those three officers listed will always be remembered as people who strived for greatness and the protection of their community also willing to put everything on the line for their community and family even if it would cost them their life. On that day those three officers and more fought for the protection of the girl being stalked in that case but deep down they have helped people you know or don’t know in so many ways. Just being there as a person to talk to or even in need of urgent help. When the knees broke out about what was happening everybody was in shock but the one thing that made everybody calm and know they were safe was when the police dealt with the issue and sent all the kids back to the school to insure 100% safety through the spring grove community. Also by doing that they allowed everyone to see just how important police are in this world and how much they are willing to give just for your safety. Also the funeral for Dep. Sgt. Cody Becker is being held at Living Word Community Church in Red Lion on Sept, 25, 2025.
