We ask a lot of the people who wear the badge.

Sometimes the hardest part is expecting them to carry it all without showing the weight.

Keeping our brothers and sisters at MPD in our thoughts and prayers and offering our condolences to his family and close friends.

With heavy hearts, the DC Police Union mourns Investigator Apolinar D. Nunez, affectionately known as “Nuney,” who passed away earlier today.

Nuney joined MPD on August 6, 2007, and most recently was assigned to the Violent Crime Suppression Division. A decorated Army combat veteran, devoted husband, and loving father to six daughters, he dedicated his life to serving others. His kindness, generosity, and friendship will never be forgotten.

Please keep his wife, daughters, loved ones, and fellow officers in your prayers during this heartbreaking time.

Rest peacefully brother. You will always be part of our Union family.

Remembering September 11, 2001

Twenty-five years ago, our nation was forever changed by the tragic attacks of September 11, 2001. Today, the Brothers and Sisters of Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #151 pause to remember and honor the nearly 3,000 innocent lives lost, the brave first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice, and the countless families and communities forever impacted by that day.

We will never forget the courage, sacrifice, and selflessness displayed by our fellow law enforcement officers, firefighters, emergency medical personnel, and ordinary citizens who answered the call in our nation’s darkest hour.

As we mark the 25th anniversary, we remember those we lost, honor those who served, and continue to stand united in our commitment to protect and serve our communities.

Twenty-five years later, we remember. We honor. We will never forget.
