This weeks is dedicated to Officer Brian Elliot of the Beech Grove Police Department who made the ultimate sacrifice yesterday while proudly protecting his community. ❤️
I had the pleasure of working alongside Brian during our time together at the Marion County Sheriff’s Office. My thoughts & prayers go out to Brians family, his wife Erin, the entire Beech Grove Police Department, the community of Beech Grove and all of those who had the honor and privilege of knowing Brian.
“You’ve done your time in hell, now it’s time to walk the streets of Heaven”

A message from Beech Grove Police Chief Michael Maurice:
"It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that today we lost one of our very own, Officer Brian Elliott. Officer Elliott, along with two other Beech Grove Police Department officers, was dispatched at 6:08 p.m. to the 100 block of Diplomat Court for a disturbance. After they arrived, Officer Elliott and another officer were shot. Both officers were rushed to Eskenazi Hospital, but despite the best lifesaving efforts by medical personnel, Officer Elliott succumbed to his injuries. The other officer, who we are not naming at this time, is currently in stable condition and is expected to survive.
My heart goes out to Brian’s wife, Erin, his parents, and all of his family, friends, and loved ones. At this time, I am asking that we lean on one another to get through this.
We are grateful to the team at Eskenazi Hospital, and our law enforcement and community partners for their extraordinary response and support."
