Robert Bernie McMaster

Reserve Officer McMaster was killed after being involved in a traffic accident while he and his partner responded to a silent alarm call. Despite having their emergency lights activated, a van pulled out in front of them, causing the patrol car to strike the rear end of the van.

The patrol car flipped over and slid into a river.

Responding officers were able to free both officers. They were transported to a local hospital where Officer McMaster was pronounced dead.

Officer McMaster had served with the agency for only 4 months.

Hey cousin, finally got the courage to post on here. I have never forgotten about you. You are in my thoughts often. Everyone is proud of you and you should be so proud of your family. I remember when it happened like yesterday. When were both young and on departments and thought it was the best. You are missed and never forgotten. Tell the rest of the badge wearing family that we all miss you guys.

Brian McMaster
Cousin
