The Arkansas State Police will hold its annual Memorial Service on May 6, 2026, to honor fallen Troopers who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving the State of Arkansas. This event precedes National Police Week, which takes place from May 10-16, 2026.

During the ceremony, ASP Troopers and personnel will gather to remember and pay tribute to their fallen colleagues. Each Trooper who lost their life in the line of duty will be honored with a single red rose presented to their family members in attendance.

Since 1948, 21 Troopers and two canines have died while serving the State of Arkansas. The Memorial Service is a solemn reminder of their bravery and dedication to keeping Arkansas communities safe.
