SAVAGE OFFICER MACKALL

UPDATE

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Officer Frank Mackall of the Savage Police Department who was critically injured in the early morning hours of January 2nd while responding to an emergency call. He lost control of his squad car on an icy road and struck a tree on his way to assist other officers on a report of a prowler. Officer Mackall was airlifted to North Memorial Medical Center, where he remains as of this post.

Officer Mackall has been employed by the Savage Police Department over three years. He is married, with three children under the age of 15.
