Robert William Sealock
Incident
Chief of Police Robert Sealock died from complications of a major asthma attack following a foot pursuit on March 26th, 2020.
He had joined other officers who were involved in a foot pursuit of a wanted subject. Shortly after arriving back to the police station, he suffered a severe asthma attack. He was unable to catch his breath and collapsed after his emergency inhaler was ineffective. A fellow officer immediately radioed for help and he was transported to a local hospital. He remained under intensive care until passing away on April 11th, 2020.
Chief Sealock was a U.S Navy veteran and served with the Aliquippa Police Department for 23 years. He was scheduled to retire later in the year.

I served 1985 to 1993. You served too, before the badge - different uniform, same idea. You go where you are sent and you do not get to pick the call.
Chief of Police Sealock gave the Aliquippa City Police Department 23 years.
Thank you for your service to the Aliquippa community, and for your service before it. Gone but never to be forgotten.
Rest easy, brother.
