The entire police force is mourning Doss’s loss, but one DPD officer’s heartbreak is deeper than the rest – his father – also named Glenn Doss.
"I want to thank god for the 25 years he allowed me the honor and the pleasure to raise such a great young man,” said Glenn Doss Sr.
Glenn Doss Jr. was the father of a 9-month-old baby.
