HOLLAND (WHTC-AM/FM) — Walker police officers will gather to remember and honor the life and legacy of Officer Trevor Slot, who killed in the line of duty 10 years ago.
The memorial ceremony is set for 10 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 16, 2021, at the Walker Police and Fire Memorial in the Walker City Central Park, closest to the corner of Wilson NE and Remembrance NW roads. Parking can be in the City Central park near the Soccer Fields and then using the bike path past the Kenowa Bus parking, leading directly to the Police and Fire Memorial.
Officer Slot, one of many officers responding to the report of a bank robbery in Ravenna, was on I-96, trying to deploy stop sticks when the suspects’ car hit and killed him.
The car with the two suspects crashed moments later and the two suspects were then shot and killed during a gun battle with police.
Officer Slot had served Lowell and St. Joseph police departments before taking a job with the Walker Police, where he served for nine years. He was 41.
His wife, Kim Slot, has called him just before his death to let him know her breast cancer had returned. She died on Setp. 16, 2015, at the age of 43. They are survived by two daughters.
