Deputy
Ryan Seguin, of the Broward County Sheriff's Office,
Florida,
was struck and killed by the driver of a vehicle as he and his partner
made a traffic stop on I-595, just east of Southwest 136 Avenue.
The
traffic violator stopped in a safety zone between the highway and merging
traffic. As Deputy Seguin was speaking with the traffic violator, another
vehicle struck the stopped vehicle and Deputy Seguin. Deputy Seguin's partner
was slightly injured by flying glass and debris. The driver who struck
Deputy Seguin pulled to the side of the highway where he was taken into
custody.
Deputy
Seguin served with the Broward County Sheriff's Office for 3 years. He
is survived by his parents. His father is a retired Ft. Lauderdale police
officer.
The
thoughts and prayers of Michigan's survivors are with Deputy Seguin's family,
friends and coworkers.
Deputy
Seguin was laid to rest in Alpena, where his family resides.
