Residents of Ouachita County have set up several points of charity for the family of a deputy who lost his life in a fatal car accident on Saturday.
According the Ouachita County Sheriff's Office Facebook, "On September 17, Ouachita County Sheriff's Office Unit #14 Deputy Parker Cox was traveling off duty when he was involved in a fatal vehicle accident. Deputy Cox started with the Sheriff's office in 2016 as a jailer. He later picked up several roles in our community as a Stephens police officer, School resource officer, and patrol deputy. He is survived by his wife and their four children. He was a loved deputy and person in our community and his family. Ouachita County Sheriff's Office is requesting any donations to support his family in this tragic time. Cash donations can also be dropped off at the Sheriffs Office."
