A Los Angeles police officer died Sunday, days after he suffered a spinal chord injury during a training exercise at Elysian Park Academy.
In a Twitter statement, he expressed"Grief, sorrow and sadness," adding,"May God Welcome him home & comfort his family, friends & partners. Our work continues in a profession that at times calls for a cost that is so very high. Blessed are the Peacemakers."
Tipping is survived by his parents, Richard and Shirley, his stepfather Bob, his siblings Kat and Tyler and his girlfriend, Brittany, according to the LAPD. “As we grieve this terrible loss, our thoughts are with the family of Officer Tipping, his Devonshire area family, and the men and women of the Los Angeles Police Department during this difficult time,'' Moore said."True to his character of unending service, Officer Tipping is an organ donor. Over the next few days, his selflessness will save other lives.''
