The 4 fallen peace officers were Deputy Matt Jones with Falls County Sheriff's Office in Texas (struck by a vehicle), Indiana State Trooper Peter Stephan (killed in patrol car crash), Los Angeles Parks Ranger / Captain Albert Torres (died of medical emergency while patrolling wildfire area), and Montgomery County Police Officer Thomas Bomba in Maryland (died from self-inflicted gunshot)
