What Happened

Police Officer Henry Minard was shot and killed while responding to a silent alarm at a jewelry store in Hollywood Mall. As he approached the store, it appeared that all the customers were acting calmly, and nothing was out of the ordinary. However, as he entered the store, he was shot in the back by an assailant. The subjects were apprehended, convicted of Officer Minard's murder, and sentenced to prison. The shooter was denied parole in 1999. Both subjects subsequently died in prison while serving their sentences. Officer Minard was a United States Navy Vietnam War veteran.

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.

Police Officer Minard served with the Hollywood Police Department.

Thank you for your service to the Hollywood community, and for your service before it. Gone but never to be forgotten.

Rest easy, brother.

— S. Vincent Anthony, U.S. Army 1985-1993
