In the evening of October 26, 1990, 63-year-old Edward Earl Flora, a Constable for Warren County Fifth District, was shot in the back of the head while investigating a single-vehicle crash near his home on Jack Simmons Road in Bowling Green, Kentucky. The car had been reported stolen earlier that day. Despite being able to call for help and being transported to a local hospital, Flora later died of the wound, ending a 26-year career in law enforcement and leaving a wife, a daughter, and two sons.

Investigators arrested a 17-year-old male who had stolen the vehicle. Authorities say the teenager shot Constable Flora with a .22 caliber handgun at the crash scene. The youth was convicted of murder and given a life sentence.

If anyone knew Flora, saw the crash that night, or has information about why this attack occurred, please share what is known.
