WINDERMERE, Fla. — A bronze plaque has been attached to a wall at the Windermere Post Office to honor the sacrifice of Officer Robert German, killed in the line of duty in 2014.
Officer German’s family was joined by local officials for a special dedication ceremony at the post office Sunday morning, including U.S. Representative Val Demings.
According to Windermere Police Chief David Ogden, the plaque honoring German will hang in the post office on Conroy Windermere Road “for many years to come.”
Officer German died in March of 2014 when he was shot after stopping two teens on Horizon Court and Conroy Windermere Road.
Investigators say the two teens took their own lives after killing German, but it was never revealed which of the teens shot German.
