Senator Allison Ikley-Freeman joins all of Tulsa in mourning the loss of Tulsa Police Sgt. Craig Johnson, who was killed in action on June 29. 

"Sgt. Johnson answered the call to serve with a heart for our community. He was a Tulsa Police Department Purple Heart recipient and was an exceptional member of our community who will be greatly missed.”

As the first TPD officer in 24 years to be killed in action, Sgt. Craig Johnson's legacy will be enshrined at the Tulsa Police Officers Memorial. His services are Thursday, July 9, 1:00 PM, at Victory Christian Church in Tulsa.

Sen. Ikley-Freeman regretfully cannot attend the service due to a pre-scheduled surgery for injuries related to her May 22 vehicle accident.
