Add to My HeroesMarc Muncy
Sergeant Marc Muncy was killed after his patrol car collided with a tractor-trailer and burst into flames as he was responding to a call for backup at 7:30 p.m.
He was traveling eastbound on an Interstate 270 overpass when he swerved to avoid a wooden pallet in the road. His police cruiser crossed the median and spun up on two wheels. The truck attempted to avoid the collision by swerving, but the car still struck the front of the trailer. The car immediately leaked fuel and ignited.
Sergeant Muncy was a United States Army military police veteran who had served with the Columbus Police Department and previously served with the Reynoldsburg Police Department for 2 years. He is survived by his wife, daughter, son, and mother.
Sergeant Muncy was posthumously promoted to the rank of sergeant.

View all 154 ReflectionsI have not left a reflection in quite some time! Ohio had an officer killed (died today) and as I read his tribute in here I decided to go to your page and see if any new reflections had been left! There have been a few.
This year marked 30 years since you were taken from us. It seems like a lifetime. Our son is now the same age you were when you died. He is thriving and living in Kentucky with a great girl by his side. You would love her. Eryne is back in Ohio and living close with her husband and 2 boys. Those boys have my whole heart! You would be so proud of her. She’s an assistant principal at a local high school and the best momma she could be!
You are greatly missed by us and so many! I continue to try and honor you in all I do! I always will!
Love always
Becky
