  Police Officer John Pawlowski

The Philadelphia Police Department's tragic string of recent line-of-duty deaths was extended into 2009 with the slaying of Police Officer John Pawlowski, 25, a five-year veteran assigned to the 35th District.

On Friday, February 13, 2009, at about 8:15PM, Officer Pawlowski responded to a dispute involving a hack and another male, later identified as Rasheed Scrugs, 33, at Broad and Olney.

According to media accounts of the incident, when Officer Pawlowski and other officers arrived at the scene, Scrugs immediately opened fire on the police, mortally wounding Officer Pawlowski.  Scrugs was also shot in the exchange of gunfire, but unfortunately he survived.

Officer Pawlowski comes from a police family.  His father was a lieutenant on the Philadelphia Police Department, and his brother is a corporal assigned to Police Radio. 

Officer John Pawlowski is survived by his wife, Kim, who is five months pregnant with their first child.

The thoughts and prayers of the entire Domelights.com community are extended to Police Officer Pawlowski, as well as his family, friends and co-workers.
