End of Watch: Police Sergeant Douglas King August 23, 2021 Today, we honor the memory of Sergeant Douglas King, who served the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department from August 12, 2004, until his passing from COVID-19 complications on August 23, 2021. Sgt. King was one of the first officers to respond to the Route 91 Harvest Festival mass shooting, a testament to his selfless commitment to protecting others. He was later awarded the department’s Medal of Honor posthumously for heroic actions during a domestic violence call. Known for his kind heart, strong character, and unwavering dedication, Sgt. King was deeply respected by his colleagues and loved immensely by his family. He is survived by his wife, Cinnamon, and daughters Scarlett, Tommi, and Hannah. We will never forget his bravery, sacrifice, and the legacy he leaves behind.
