Prayers desperately needed for family of NC State Trooper and family

I come to you this morning with a broken heart asking for your prayers. Last night in my county a state trooper died in the line of duty. He had given chase to someone on a motorcycle and had called for back up. His brother, also a state trooper was responding to help him. The suspect wrecked the motorcycle and tried to flee. The trooper gave chase and managed to subdue the suspect. He had the suspect at or near his car when his brother arrived on the scene. Tragically his brother lost control of his car and crashed into his brother and the suspect killing them both. The brother survived and was treated and released from the hospital last night. The trooper who died was John Horton a 15 year veteran of the NCHP. The surviving brother is James “Nick “ Horton. Please lift up this family and all the state troopers and their families as they go through this unspeakable tragedy.

Tragic for sure. Especially since it was family. These types of incidents happen far too often.

much pain and adversity as you can handle. He must think this family can handle an incredible amount. Prayers to them for their loss, and continuing prayers for the brother who survived and his family as well. Unspeakable does seem to be the right word to describe this whole sequence of tragic events.

That scripture only applies to believers, unfortunately.

I pray that this family is a family of believers, otherwise it will probably be much more than some can handle.

Where did you get the information that the motorcycle rider had ran and crashed his motorcycle? Everything I've seen says he was simply being detained. He was also a father of 3 and his family deserves just as many prayers and well wishes as the officer

After reading your post I realize that in my overwhelming grief for the trooper, his brother and their family I neglected to say that the family of the other man who died in the tragic accident needs and deserves our prayers as well. We have many friends in the law enforcement community and my heart was breaking for them as I wrote the post asking for prayer. I feel bad for not thinking of the other man’s family and I sincerely thank you for bringing that to my attention.
