It is with profound sadness we extend our condolences to the family, friends and colleagues of Calgary Police Service Sgt. Andrew Harnett, who was killed in the line of duty on December 31, 2020.
While working to keep the community safe, Sgt. Harnett was struck by a vehicle fleeing a traffic stop. Despite the heroic attempts by his colleagues and members of EMS, he died as a result of his injuries.
On behalf of the Medicine Hat Police Service we offer our heartfelt sympathies to the Harnett family and to the members of the Calgary Police Service family.
All police officers share a bond with a common goal to serve our communities and maintain public safety and we mourn this tragedy with our policing partners.
