5 Years of Memories for Patrolman Byrd


HURLEY -- This Sunday, March 27, will mark five years of memories of the too-short but full life of Patrolman Terry Micheal Byrd.


The Pascagoula motorcycle officer was killed in 2006 when he tried to avoid a vehicle waiting to turn in traffic and instead was thrown into the path of an oncoming dump truck. The truck subsequently ran over Byrd during the traffic accident on Chicot Road.



April 11 will mark the birthday of the young officer, who was 27 years old when he died while on his way to visit a sister and her newborn son. He was born in 1979.
