Henry David McCall was a 21-year-old patrolman with the Frostproof Police Department when he was killed on March 5, 1981. He had served with the department for two years and had been married just two weeks. McCall responded to a silent alarm at a local bank that had a history of false alarms and, as he exited his vehicle, two suspects opened fire, striking him in the head. He died at the scene.

Investigators determined the shooting occurred during a robbery attempt. Despite extensive efforts, the case remained unsolved for many years; the primary suspect later died in prison a few years after the murder and no other suspects were conclusively identified. The community and McCall’s fellow officers remember him for his dedication and service.

If anyone knew Patrolman McCall, witnessed the bank alarm response on March 5, 1981, or has information about the robbery attempt, please come forward.
