Rockford Police Department has lost 8 officers across 101 years on record. 7 — 87.5% — were killed feloniously, meaning officers were deliberately targeted and murdered in the line of duty. This is 19.1 percentage points above the national average of 68.4% for Others — reflecting the particular danger faced by officers in this jurisdiction.

This agency has also lost 1 K9 partner — working animals who served alongside officers and gave their lives in that service. They are honored on this memorial alongside every officer.
