Road closings Monday for service at DC Police Memorial

There will be several road closings on Monday for the 46th annual Washington Area Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Service in D.C.

The service starts at 11:30 a.m. at the D.C. Police Memorial in Northwest D.C.

The memorial is in front of the Daly building, the historic headquarters of the Metropolitan Police Department, at 300 Indiana Avenue, NW.

The service honors officers who died in the line of duty in the past year, as well as all fallen heroes since the creation of the D.C. police force, according to organizers. On Monday, officers Wayne David, David Martinez and Daoud Mingo will be recognized.

David’s name will be inscribed on the memorial wall. The D.C. police officer died after being accidentally shot while retrieving a suspect’s gun from a storm drain in August.
