Utah Highway Patrol

Utah Highway Patrol has lost 16 officers across 86 years on record. 7 — 43.8% — were killed feloniously, meaning officers were deliberately targeted and murdered in the line of duty. This is 9.9 percentage points above the national average of 33.9% for Highway Patrols — reflecting the particular danger faced by officers in this jurisdiction.

9 officers were lost to accidents — 56.3% of this agency's fallen, compared to 60.8% nationally for Highway Patrols. Across this agency's history, roughly 1 in every 2 officers who died did so in an accident.

This agency has also lost 2 K9 partners — working animals who served alongside officers and gave their lives in that service. They are honored on this memorial alongside every officer.
