Summary: |
Officer Helen P. Cardwell was killed in an accident in the 1900 block of South Sacramento. She was on her way to exchange an unmarked squad for her assigned car when her vehicle left the roadway and struck two trees.
She was removed from the car by firefighters and at 10:45 a.m. was pronounced dead at Mt. Sinai Hospital.
Officer Cardwell became a police officer in 1970. She had been assigned to the speakers unit of the senior citizens division since its establishment in 1982. Several times each day, Officer Cardwell would meet with the elderly to teach them the simple but crucial rules of crime prevention.
