San Marcos Community Mourns Fallen Officer

San Marcos community members are remembering a police officer fallen in the line of duty.  Yesterday, people lined the streets using social distancing while the body of Officer Justin Putnam was being transported from the Travis County Medical Examiner's office in Austin back to the Thomason Funeral Home in San Marcos. On Saturday, Officer Putnam was shot dead and two other officers were critically wounded in an ambush while responding to a domestic violence incident. Anyone wishing to donate to the two officers in recovery and to the family of Officer Putnam can find out how to do so at the San Marcos Citizens Police Academy Alumni Association webpage, SMCPAAA.org.
