Support Officer Elia Lewin-Tankel

To: All Members
From: Martin Halloran

The deliberate and intentional attempted murder of our brother Officer Elia Lewin-Tankel, on October 18th, has left him struggling every day fighting to recover.

On Monday, November 13th, Elia was transferred from the Intensive Care Unit at SFGH to a rehabilitation facility that specializes in the treatment of patients with traumatic head injuries. Members of the SFPD, the CHP, and the San Jose Police Department assisted in this transfer. Our members along with members from the San Francisco Fire Department showed their respect and admiration for Officer Lewin-Tankel as they stood at attention on an overpass as the ambulance with Elia on board proceeded along the freeway. This tribute was captured by the media, watch the video below.

We pray everyday for Elia and his family and we know there will be unforeseen costs associated with his recovery. A GoFundMe account has been established for Elia.

Please consider a donation for this heroic officer who has given his all to serve and protect our residents.
