Chico Police Mark 82st Anniversary Honoring Fallen Officer Carleton Bruce

On Saturday, February 22, 2020, at the 82nd Annual Memorial, we honored one of our own Fallen Heros, Officer Carleton J. Bruce, who was shot and killed in the line of duty on February 22, 1938 while responding to a disturbance at a local restaurant. Today, along with members of the Bruce family and the Chico Fire Department, we gathered together at Officer Bruce’s final resting place to pay tribute to a brave hero and to the sacrifice he made while protecting and serving his community.
We will never forget.
