The wife of one of the Elizabethtown Police Department’s Public Affairs Officers has been killed in an accident involving a plane at Samuel Field, an airport in Bardstown.
Feleshia Denham, 37, of Glendale, was killed Sunday afternoon when she exited a plane she had been a passenger on during a flight from Elizabethtown. The Nelson County Coroner’s Office told news outlets that when Denham got out of the plane to change seats she walked into a propeller.
Denham was the wife of Chris Denham, a popular law enforcement figure in Elizabethtown due to his oftentimes humorous posts on the department’s social media accounts.
The Elizabethtown Police Department issued the following statement on Felecia Denham’s death:
It is a heavy, heavy day at EPD. Please keep Officer Denham and his family in your thoughts and prayers. His beloved wife tragically passed away this afternoon. Our hearts are broken for our brother and his family. Please respect their privacy during this difficult time.
