From the Officer Down Memorial Page: Investigator Michael Davis was shot and killed while taking part in a massive manhunt for the murderer of Deputy Sheriff Danny Oliver of the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department.
The subject who murdered Deputy Oliver, assisted by a female accomplice, carjacked a vehicle and fled up I-80 after killing Deputy Oliver. They exited the highway in Auburn, before stopping on the side of the road. Investigator Davis and his partner, who was also his brother, spotted the vehicle and began to approach it when the male subject opened fire with an AR-15 rifle, striking both officers.
Investigator Davis had served with the Placer County Sheriff's Department for 15 years.
Investigator Davis' father, Investigator Michael Davis Sr., was killed in the line of duty on October 24th, 1988, while serving with the Riverside County Sheriff's Department. Their line of duty deaths occurred exactly 26 years apart to the day.
