LODD Details

Police Officer Jacob Derbin was tragically shot and killed while responding to a disturbance call in the 300 block of East 211th Street at about 9:55 pm. He was ambushed by a subject after he arrived at the location. The man who shot him, who is a convicted felon and was wanted for violating conditions of his community supervision, fled the scene. Officer Derbin was transported to University Hospital where he succumbed to his wounds. The suspect was found dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound the next day.

Officer Derbin was a United States Army National Guard veteran and had served with the Euclid Police Department for 10 months. He is survived by his mother, father, three brothers, a sister, and fiancée who all loved him dearly. Through the generosity of our donors, we had the honor of hand-delivering vital resources to help ease their financial hardship while mourning.
