Ladies and Gentlemen:
I would like to present the 2015 Law Enforcement Officers Killed or
Assaulted (LEOKA) annual report. This report is published by the TBI presenting
information on reported incidents of assaults or deaths of law enforcement officers
in the line of duty that occurred in Tennessee. The information contained in the
report is based on crime statistics information submitted by law enforcement
agencies in Tennessee to TBIs Tennessee Incident Based Reporting System
(TIBRS) program. TIBRS is the state version of the FBIs National Incident Based
Reporting System (NIBRS) program. The information collected by TBI conforms to
the national standard as presented in the FBIs annual LEOKA report. Please see
www.tncrimeonline.com for additional information.
I am very proud of the efforts of all participating law enforcement agencies
in the state to provide the data necessary to produce this report. Our combined
efforts have resulted in a successful program and this annual report providing
information on incidents involving assaults and deaths of our law enforcement
offiicers.
Sincerely,
Mark Gwyn
Director
INTERNATIONALLY ACCREDITED SINCE 1994
Law Enforcement Officers Killed or Assaulted 2015

The current report presents analyses of incidents in which Law Enforcement Officers were killed or
assaulted in the line of duty in 2015. The information is collected through the Tennessee Incident
Based Reporting System (TIBRS). Incident based reporting views a crime and all of its components
as an incident. In order to obtain important information, facts recorded and preserved about the
incident are organized into specific categories or segments. The vehicle used for recording these
facts is a data element. Data elements provide information about crime and its involvement with
victims, offenders, property, arrestees, etc.
Offenses included for analyses:
Murder and Non-negligent Manslaughter The willful (non-negligent) killing of one human
being by another.
Note: Deaths of Law Enforcement Officers by accidental causes do not meet the FBIs
reporting criteria for a LEOKA offense
Aggravated Assault An unlawful attack by one person upon another wherein the offender
uses a weapon or displays it in a threatening manner, or the victim suffers obvious severe or
aggravated bodily injury involving apparent broken bones, loss of teeth, possible internal injury,
severe laceration or loss of consciousness.
Simple Assault An unlawful physical attack by one person upon another where neither the
offender displays a weapon, nor the victim suffers obvious severe or aggravated bodily injury
involving apparent broken bones, loss of teeth, possible internal injury, severe laceration or loss
of consciousness.
Intimidation To unlawfully place another person in reasonable fear of bodily harm through the
use of threatening words and/or other conduct, but without displaying a weapon or subjecting the
victim to actual physical attack.
Stalking To intentionally and repeatedly follow or harass another person in such a manner as
would cause that person to be in reasonable fear of being assaulted, suffering bodily injury or
death.
