Family, community honor fallen Clark County Sgt. Jeremy Brown during memorial service

Members of the public were invited to view a procession and attend a memorial service for fallen Clark County Sgt. Jeremy Brown on Tuesday, Aug. 3. Jeremy Brown was shot and killed July 23 while he was conducting surveillance at an apartment complex. He was allegedly shot by one of the suspects he was watching, as he sat in his unmarked car.

Several members of Jeremy Brown's family spoke during the memorial service at Ilani Resort including his wife, Jill Brown, who thanked the community for their support. She called her husband a sincere, honest, loyal, loving and driven man.

"He inspired others on the daily in life just by being who he was, and he will continue to do so, this I have zero doubt," she said. "Jeremy did not just have the heart of a lion. He was a lion. There are very few lions in this world and walking with one of them is a gift for which we should be eternally grateful."
