Warren Corway Sanders was a 33-year-old Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office officer killed on July 26, 1990, while working an undercover assignment. He and a fellow officer were seated in a vehicle when a suspect recognized the partner and tried to flee. The partner pursued the suspect while Sanders subdued a passenger in the suspect’s vehicle. After securing the passenger, Sanders went to help his partner, who had chased the suspect into an apartment.

Inside the apartment Sanders was caught in a crossfire between the suspect and the partner. Sanders was shot and mortally wounded; his partner was shot multiple times but survived. The suspect turned himself in several days later and was later sentenced to death for Sanders’ murder. Sanders had served seven years with the Sheriff’s Office and was survived by his wife.
