BISMARCK \u2013 U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND) issued the following statement regarding the\u00a0Mercer County Sheriff\u2019s Deputy\u00a0killed<\/a> in the\u00a0line of\u00a0duty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEarlier this evening, our 42-year-old son Ian was involved in a police chase which resulted in an accident that killed an officer. Ian suffers from serious mental disorders which manifest in severe paranoia and hallucinations. Kris was with Ian when he insisted on going to his brother Ike. Ike died in 2018. Kris took Ian to the Sanford Health emergency room in Bismarck. When she got out of our vehicle, Ian jumped into the driver\u2019s seat and fled. Our daughter was able to track the car through Kris\u2019 cell phone and lead officers to him in Mercer County, ND. We don\u2019t have more details right now but will work with authorities to properly inform the public.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI will take the first flight I can to be with our family as we grieve what has happened. We grieve especially for the family of the hero who tried to help Ian, and we pray for our gracious God to show up as He always does in tragedy. We ask the public for prayers for the lost officer\u2019s family and colleagues who serve us every day and are grateful for all they do for us.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe also ask God for healing for Ian. We love him and hurt deeply.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
