Our town, has been in the news quite often and lately, we have been on the map. Last week we had a bad accident on I-30 at CR 548, when two semi's collided head on, killing 3 people. Although, I didn't see the car involved in the accident, in the photo, they say there was 3 vehicles involved.
Now, we have a DART police officer that was the first one killed last evening, in the sniper shooting in Dallas, Tx. Seems, that this officer had only been married 2 weeks ago, and now our city is mourning his unfortunate death. A prayer vigil, will be held this evening at the police department here in town, to honor him and our other officers. Blue ribbons have been placed around the light poles on Main Street,
to show support of our Police Department and flags lowered to half mast at City Hall and the Police Station.
Royse City, TX is a growing town and with it comes the responsibility of protecting it's residents and businesses. Our hearts go out to the families, who are grieving from the loss of their loved one, may God, give them courage to go forward, during these horrific times.
