Terre Haute Police to take part in virtual vigil for Police Week

It's "national police week"..

And thanks to the coronavirus..

Events in washington d-c to honor "our nation's fallen law enforcement officers" "have bee cancelled".

But back here in terre haute..

"our local police officers" are "not" letting the virus stop them.

They're honoring the nation's "fallen heroes"... anyway.

"the terre haute police department" is recognizing "police week" by participating "in a virtual candlelight vigil".

Police chief "shawn keen says"..

He usually sends officers every year to the ceremony in washington d-c.

And you're looking right here at video "from one of last year's many events".

"keen says"..

Although things are different this year..

This week still carries the same meaning.

/////// /////// "it's just an unusual time.

We are going to do the best job we can to still recognize our members that lost their lives in the line of duty and continue doing what we are doing."
