MIAMI BEACH, Fla. — The Miami Beach Police Department held a somber ceremony on Thursday, honoring officers who lost their lives while in the line of duty.
Under a gray South Florida sky, badges gleamed and flags were lowered while many of the hearts in attendance carried the kind of wight no police uniform can protect against.
One of the men honored was 33-year-old Sgt. David Cajuso, a 10-year veteran of the department.
Florida Highway Patrol said Cajuso lost control of his motorcycle off I-75 near Hialeah while on his way to work.
He was one of 11 officers honored during Thursday’s event.
Their names were spoken carefully and deliberately as loved ones fought back tears that no words could ever fully comfort.
