After this past weekend when a FHP officer did the same maneuver to save countless lives. Impact’s the importance of memorializing these heroic souls that keep us safe. I can’t think of a better way to pay tribute by creating a tribute from tragedy.

This is a FABULOUS show of SUPPORT for Officers of the Police Force in Tampa and everywhere. Well done Sir

I teared up what a hero

[@melissaschreiber7]

Oh wow so there's another officer that did this but he survived oh my God thank God that female officer survived doing this prayers to his family 🙏🙏🙏

[@mamapoch1915]

Officer Madsen is the epitome of a hero. There are many instances of police misconduct and worse but there are many _more_ instances of how they truly do protect and serve, sometimes losing their lives doing so. My heart goes out to Officer Madsen, his coworkers, and all of his loved ones.
