In Memoriam

Officer Michael Frederick Clark

Born: August 12, 1966 


End of Watch: August 4, 1995 


On August 4, 1995, Officer Michael F. Clark was tragically shot and killed while responding with fellow officers to a welfare check on a suicidal individual at a residence on Aztec Court in Simi Valley. Officer Clark had served with the Simi Valley Police Department for only four months at the time of his death, but he brought with him more than five years of law enforcement experience from the Los Angeles Police Department, as well as distinguished service in the United States Marine Corps. 

Following the incident, the assailant was wounded by other officers, taken into custody, and later convicted of second-degree murder. He was sentenced to life in prison and denied parole in 2021. 

Officer Clark was just 28 years old. He is survived by his wife, Jennifer, and son, Bayley, who was 5-months old at the time. 


His sacrifice remains an enduring reminder of the dangers law enforcement officers face in their commitment to protecting others. To honor his legacy, the Simi Valley Police Department holds an annual ceremony led by the Honor Guard at the station’s flagstaff. 


Several lasting tributes carry his name: 

- In 2008, the street leading to the police station’s main entrance was dedicated as Officer Michael Clark Memorial Parkway.


- In August 2016, the Highway 118 First Street overpass bridge was renamed the Simi Valley Police Officer Michael Clark Memorial Overcrossing.


-Gone but never forgotten
