Corporal Bill Cooper was shot and killed after he and several other officers responded to a domestic violence call involving an armed subject at a home. Corporal Cooper was a Marine Corps veteran and had served with the Sebastian County Sheriff’s Office for 19 years.

Corporal Cooper was an outstanding law enforcement officer and a great person.

He loved every day he was given to serve others and he was the kind of deputy that put citizens at ease the minute he arrived on a call.
