A Huntsville police officer died late Monday afternoon after responding to a call.
Twenty-seven year-old Daniel H. Golden, a three-year veteran of the department, was shot in the head after responding to a call at Jalisco Restaurant on Jordan Lane near Mastin Lake Road.
He died a short time after arriving at Huntsville Hospital.
Golden worked the West Precinct, on second shift.
Golden was the first Huntsville officer killed in the line of duty since 1968.
Investigators are questioning one or two individuals who may be suspects.
Golden is survived by his wife and step-children

While I'm not one of the officers on the street (communications), I really liked Dan and hate that this happened. He was a great guy and was never hard to get along with. I'm still in shock.
