LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – The death of a Marked Tree Police Department officer on Sunday while on duty has led to Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders ordering all flags to half-staff.
The order calls for both the U.S. and the Arkansas flags to fly at half-staff between sunrise and sunset on the day of 25-year-old Officer Trevor Howard’s interment. That date has not yet been announced.
