What Happened

Patrolman Donald Seick was shot and killed when he attempted to question a man while he was off duty. Patrolman Seick was at a gas station when he saw a man walk out of the building very quickly. Patrolman Seick was familiar with the subject and suspected he had just robbed the service station. He followed the man a short distance before asking him what he was doing in the service station. The man shot Patrolman Seick in the chest, with the gun still in his jacket pocket. The man fled the scene but was apprehended several days later and sentenced to life. He was paroled in 1974. Patrolman Seick was a U.S. Army 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.

Patrolman Seick served with the Denver Police Department.

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

Rest easy, brother.

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