Photos: Police memorials around the country that honor our nation's fallen LEOs

While each memorial is unique to its department and location, they all have one thing in common: to honor officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice

In honor of this year's National Police Week, we have curated a handful of photos of police memorials around the country that honor our nation's fallen law enforcement officers. While each memorial is unique to its department and location, they all have one thing in common: to honor officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice. The photos feature police memorials from California to New York.
