This memorial workout is dedicated to Captain David Dorn who was shot to death by looters at a St. Louis pawn shop at 4123 MLK Blvd. on June 2, 2020.
After 38 years of service, Captain David was a retired St. Louis police captain and municipal chief. He was 77 years old when he died.
The Ethical Society of Police, which represents black officers in St. Louis, mourned Dorn as “the type of brother that would’ve given his life to save them if he had to.”
Dorn’s wife, Ann Marie Dorn, said her husband was a friend of the pawn shop’s owner and worked for him. He would show up at the shop when burglar alarms sounded to check on the building and make sure it was secure, she said. Ann Marie is herself a sergeant with the St. Louis Police Department.
David Dorn retired from the St. Louis Police Department in 2007 after 38 years on the job. He rose from rookie patrol officer in 1969 to captain. He was the deputy commander of the Bureau of Patrol Support, which oversees traffic and mounted patrols, commercial vehicles, and the tactical unit. He later served as the police chief of Moline Acres since February 2008.
