As they approached the vehicle, it sped north on Broad Street; however, officers did not pursue it.<br \/><br \/>\n\nDetective Garten was in the passenger seat of a patrol car traveling east on Asylum Avenue with emergency equipment activated enroute to another incident. The fleeing car sped through the Farmington Avenue red traffic signal, and as it was speeding through the red traffic signal at Asylum Avenue, it struck the passenger side of the cruiser.<br \/><br \/>\n\nDetective Garten and the officer driving the cruiser were transported to St. Francis Hospital where Officer Garten succumbed to his injuries. The other officer was admitted in stable condition.<br \/><br \/>\n\nThe subject is in custody and charged with failure to obey a traffic control signal, failure to renew registration, misuse of plates, and interfering with a police officer. His charges were upgraded to first-degree manslaughter and first-degree assault, reckless endangerment, disobeying the direction of an officer, reckless driving, DUI, and failure to yield to an emergency vehicle. <br \/><br \/>\n\nDetective Garten had served with the Hartford Police Department for eight years. He was a second-generation police officer. He is survived by his parents, brother, nephews, and grandmother. <br \/><br \/>\n\nDetective Garten was posthumously promoted to detective.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Detective Bobby Garten October 2023 Mission Moment Detective Bobby Garten Hartford Police Department, Connecticut End of Watch \u2013 September 6, 2023 On September 6, 2023, Detective Bobby Garten was killed&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/madd.org\/mission-moment-october-2023\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Mission Moment \u2013 October 2023<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[157],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-127110","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mission-moment","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.5 -
