A Capitol Police recruit died in a car crash over the weekend while in Georgia attending a training. Five other recruit officers were also injured in the accident, Capitol Police said Monday.
Recruit Officer Christopher Katz was killed in the accident, according to a joint statement from House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., and House Administration Committee ranking member Joseph D. Morelle, D-N.Y.
“It is a tragic day with the news that several USCP recruits were involved in that fatal accident while in Georgia and are dealing with serious injuries. The entire House Democratic Caucus family is praying for their swift recovery,” they said in the joint statement.
