Memorial and remembrance services announced for Carrollton officer killed in crash this week
during a DWI Investigation on the George Bush Turnpike.
Carrollton Police said Nothem was sitting inside his squad car when 82-year-old Philip Parker crashed into the patrol unit. Parker died at the scene. A neighbor told NBC 5 that Parker was on his way to the airport to pick up a relative. Police do not believe alcohol was involved but said the investigation is underway.
Thursday afternoon the Frisco Police along with officers from other agencies in North Texas and fire departments blocked off roads and escorted the body of Officer Nothem from the Collin County Medical Examiners office to the funeral home in Frisco. Tributes for the fallen officer continued to grow outside the Carrollton Police Department where a squad car is parked alongside a large picture of Nothem.
"I just decided to drop off some flowers to respect the guy and give my respects, never knew the guy, but knew he was a father, a Marine, and a police officer that was serving our community," said Luis Sanchez of Carrollton.
