The Fort Worth Police Department recently took to social media to commemorate the service and sacrifice of one of their own, Special Officer Jackson Palmer, who was killed in the line of duty on December 26, 1908, over a century ago. The tribute, marking the anniversary of his “End of Watch,” recounts the tragic events leading to Palmer’s death outside the “Jones and Tomby Saloon” where he was shot by an individual he had intervened with during a disturbance. According to the Fort Worth Police Department’s Facebook post by the department, the assailant fled the scene after the shooting.
