Two names were added to Utah Law Enforcement Memorial this week.
“Today, Franklin Schaerrer and Nate Lyday are chilling examples of the reality of the commitment which lies within each of these fine officers with us today and those across our great state and our great nation,” Ogden Police Chief Eric Young said during the annual memorial service for Utah law enforcement on the west grounds of the state Capitol in Salt Lake City Thursday.
