A Navajo Nation tribal police officer was killed in a head-on crash in Arizona while responding to a call on Tuesday.
Officer Leander Frank was dispatched to Tsaile in Apache County for a call when another vehicle approached him on Route 64 near milepost 15.5, according to KNXV-TV.
Officials with the Navajo Nation said that both drivers attempted to avoid each other but were unable to and collided head-on.
Frank was killed on impact while the passengers in the other vehicle survived the crash.
Governor Doug Ducey has ordered all flags to fly at half staff on Wednesday in honor of the fallen officer.
The crash is currently under investigation by the Arizona Department of Public Safety.
Fuenral arrangements are pending.
