Harold Enloe served in the U.S. Navy.
Chief of Police Harold Enloe was killed in a vehicle crash during a vehicle pursuit that had traveled throughout Asheville. The patrol car he was in went out of control on the rain-slicked Old Black Mountain Highway (modern-day Swannanoa River Road) 400 yards west of the Sayles Biltmore Bleachery bridge. Chief Enloe was ejected from the vehicle as a result of the crash. The driver of the vehicle they were pursuing was charged with reckless driving. Chief Enloe was a United States Navy veteran. He had served with the Asheville Police Department for 14 years and held the position of police chief for just over one year. He was a graduate of the FBI National Academy. He was survived by his wife and son. The first FOP lodge in the state was named in Chief Enloe's honor.

In tribute
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 Enloe gave the Asheville Police Department 14 years.
Thank you for your service to the Asheville community, and for your service before it. Gone but never to be forgotten.
Rest easy, brother.
— S. Vincent Anthony, U.S. Army 1985-1993
