Panel approves transfer of fallen deputy's service weapon to family
Summary
The board approved a request from the sheriff's office to transfer Deputy Jared Allison's service weapon to his mother as part of a September dedication. The transfer follows standard paperwork procedures similar to weapons given to retirees.
The Nash County Board of Commissioners approved a request from the sheriff's office to transfer the service weapon of Deputy Jared Allison, who died in a traffic-enforcement collision in 2020, to his mother at a planned September bridge dedication. The sheriff's representative described the action as an honor similar to the practice used when officers retire.
The presenter told the board the weapon has been held in the armory since Allison's death and that the family would complete the necessary paperwork to accept it. A motion to approve the transfer was made and seconded; the board voted in favor.
