Services Scheduled For Slain Atchison Police Officer

Funeral services and visitation are planned this week in memory of Atchison, Kansas police Sgt. David Enzbrenner who was fatally shot Friday by a gunman who subsequently took his own life.


Visitation is planned Wednesday from 6 to 9 p.m. at the United Methodist Church at 501 Kansas Avenue in Atchison. The funeral will be Thursday at 11 a.m. at the Ralph Nolan Gymnasium on campus at Benedictine College at 1020 North 2nd. A graveside service will follow at the Sunset memory Gardens in Atchison County.

Enzbrenner,46, was a married father of three who has been with the Atchison Police Department for 24 years. He was shot at about 4 p.m. Friday by a man who then took his own life.

Officials say the suspect surprised the officer as he served a nuisance order on a home at 12th and Division in Atchison.

The shooter was identified as Skyler Barbee, 25, of Atchison, who authorities say had many prior brushes with the law.
