  • Summary

  • Deputy Edward (Ed) Eades was a Deputy Sheriff serving in the central Minnesota county of Meeker, located just over 60 miles West of Minneapolis. A small, quiet county consisting of low rolling hills, a few wooded areas, and many lakes and ponds. The rest of the area is focused on agriculture. A quiet fall night ends up in 3 officer involved shootings in 3 different communities, with two officers shot, and the suspect shot. One of these heroes, was veteran Deputy Edward Eades, who would lose his life from his gunshot injuries. He left behind his wife Edith and kids David and Darlene, and is the first and only line of duty death ever recorded in Meeker County Minnesota.
