Summary: |
Officer White was shot and killed when he interrupted a robbery in progress while walking his beat in Chinatown. Officer White had walked into a saloon that was being robbed at Sixth and Alice Streets. When the two suspects saw him, they both opened fire. Officer White was fatally wounded. The suspects fled the scene and were never apprehended.
After Officer White's murder, it was discovered that his real last name was Merkel. However, he used the last name White when he was hired by the agency and everyone knew him by that name.
He had been with the agency for 16 months and was survived by his wife and 8-year-old son.
