Corporal Kyle Davis of the Washington County Oklahoma Sheriff’s Office, died after being assaulted inside of the Washington County Correctional Facility while booking a prisoner.
Seventeen subjects had been arrested as a result of a large scale narcotics investigation and were being booked into the jail. One of the suspects began to struggle with officers and struck Corporal Davis in the chest, rupturing his aorta. He was transported to a local hospital where he passed away shortly thereafter.
Corporal Davis had served with the Washington County Sheriff’s Office for 13 years. He is survived by his wife and two children.
