CHARLOTTE — Four law enforcement officers killed in an ambush in east Charlotte last year will be remembered this spring.
The Tunnel to Towers Foundation, which supports families of first responders, hosts the Charlotte Climb each year.
Volunteers previously climbed the Duke Energy building and the museum owner.
According to the Charlotte Observer, this will be the first year that participants will climb the stairs of Bank of America Stadium.
The year’s event will honor the four law enforcement officers who died in the line of duty while attempting to serve warrants to a felon.
Those officers were U.S. Marshal Task Force Officers Sam Poloche and William “Alden” Elliott, Deputy U.S. Marshal Tommy Weeks Jr., and Charlotte-Mecklenburg police officer Joshua Eyer.
