Officer Sean Gannon was shot and killed while helping serve a warrant on April 12, 2018. His K9 partner, Nero, was also shot in the neck and face but survived.

Officer Gannon was 32 years old and is survived by his wife. He previously served with the Stonehill College Police Department and Nantucket Police Department. He served with the Yarmouth Police Department for 7 years.

Our Give Blue Fundraiser was launched to support the family of Officer Gannon. The fundraiser received an overwhelming amount of response and support for this fallen hero. We send our deepest thanks to everyone that took part and continues to wear their Thin Blue Line Bracelet in honor of Officer Gannon.

A total donation of $26,056.67 was made to the Yarmouth Police Foundation to directly support the Officer Sean Gannon Memorial Fund. This marks the second largest fundraiser by Thin Blue Line USA to date.

“You can’t describe Sean in one sentence. I mean, to sum him up he was what our definition of a community-minded police officer and just an all around amazing person. He would go out of his way to help anyone," said JR Mell of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cape Cod. - CBS Boston

God bless you, Sean Gannon. May you rest in peace.
