Timothy Duane

Police Officer Timothy Duane succumbed to injuries sustained nine days earlier when he was struck by a vehicle.

He was directing traffic at the intersection of 10th Avenue and East 14th Street when he was struck the car. The impact threw him into the path of a second vehicle, which also struck him. He was transported to a Highland Hospital with a fractured skull and remained there until succumbing to the injuries.

Officer Duane had served with the Oakland Police Department for 20 years. He was survived by his three children and one grandchild.

My wife, Susan McPeak-Gormley, is the great grand daughter of Officer Duane. Her research and subsequent contact with the Oakland PD ensured that his loss would not be forgotten. Susan would have made a helluva detective. I am honored to have known many officers from the OPD and look upon each as heroes.
