Officer Freddie Norman

The Cobb County Police Department mourns the death of Cobb County Police Officer Freddie Norman (retired), Badge # 227.

On April 17, 1988, Officer Norman was traveling on Pat Mell Road responding to a dispatch when his patrol car was stuck by another vehicle driven by an impaired juvenile. Injuries resulting from the accident ended Officer Norman’s law enforcement career and left him a quadriplegic.

On February 14, 2009 at 4:03 PM, Officer Norman died at Wellstar Cobb Hospital as a result from medical complications believed to be related to injuries suffered in the accident 20 years earlier. Officer Freddie Norman was 45 and lived in Austell, GA. He is survived by his wife Faith and his daughters Christi (24) and Hope (12). Christi Norman serves as a police officer for the city of Austell. The Cobb County Police Department honors the service and sacrifice of Officer Norman and his family.
