Harnett County mourns the loss of Deputy Sheriff Chris Johnson
Wednesday, February 7, 2024
Today, our hearts are heavy as we mourn the loss of one of our own. Deputy Sheriff Chris Johnson has honorably served the Harnett County Sheriff’s Office for 16 months. He served as a School Resource Officer at Highland Middle School. He previously worked with the Sampson County Sheriff’s Office for 16 years and the Dunn Police Department for 9 years. Sheriff Wayne Coats asks that you pray for all the families involved in this tragedy, “As we mourn the untimely loss of Deputy Johnson, we recognize the impact he has had on the community where he lived but also the community in which he served." Please continue to pray for not only his family, but also those who he has impacted through his dedicated service to the Harnett County School System.
