Officer Jason Roscow - North Las Vegas Police Department - Nevada

On February 4, 2025, Officer Jason Roscow of the North Las Vegas Police Department paid the ultimate sacrifice while on duty.  Officer Roscow was responding to a residence in North Las Vegas at about 2:15 p.m. on a report that an individual was brandishing a gun at a resident.  

When Officer Roscow attempted to make contact with the subject, the man ignored him and fled. After locating the man, the subject refused commands and fired at Officer Roscow. Officer Roscow returned fire, killing the subject.

Officer Roscow was transported to University Medical Center where he succumbed to multiple gunshot wounds.

Officer Roscow was 46-years-old and was a United States Air Force veteran.  Roscow had served with the North Las Vegas Police Department for 17 years and is survived by two sons.

Our prayers and condolences to Officer Roscow's family, colleagues, friends, and the community of North Las Vegas.  As part of our "Plaques for Heroes" campaign, the below engraved memorial plaque was sent to his family and the North Las Vegas Police Department to honor his service and sacrifice.
