Robert Terry Mackie served in the U.S. Navy.
Officer Robert Mackie was shot and killed when he and another officer responded to a home after receiving reports that a man had a gun around 1:00 a.m. The suspect was known to the officers and had been involved in several similar calls. When the officers arrived, Officer Mackie went to the front door, and the other officer went around to the rear of the home. The suspect confronted Officer Mackie and opened fire with a shotgun, striking him in the face. Officer Mackie fired a round from his pistol at the same time, but the round went through the suspect's hat. The suspect fled the scene but was later shot and killed by other officers. Officer Mackie was a United States Navy veteran and had served with the Los Banos Police Department for nine months.

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.
Officer Mackie served with the Los Banos Police Department.
Thank you for your service to the Los Banos community, and for your service before it. Gone but never to be forgotten.
Rest easy, brother.
