A popular Rocky Mount police Patrolman and U.S. serviceman was killed in a two-vehicle wreck on Interstate 581 early Saturday morning, police said. Jason Maxey, 34, was killed in the wreck, according to Rocky Mount Lt. W.A. Engel. The Rocky Mount resident had a reputation as an outgoing officer who was especially strong at investigative work. He also served in the U.S. Navy and the Army National Guard. Last February, he completed an 18-month mission in Kosovo with the National Guard, Engel said. He enjoyed life, Engel said. He enjoyed his jobs whether in law enforcement or the military because he enjoyed helping people. Maxey grew up in Bedford and was a healthy person who enjoyed weight lifting, Engel said. During his six years with the Rocky Mount Police Department, he received several awards and commendation letters from law enforcement officers, public citizens and administrative personnel. In 2006, he received a Mothers Against Destructive Decisions award for officers who are good at placing DUI charges. He had finished Special Weapons and Tactics training with the Los Angeles Police Department at the end of September. He was a people person. He could talk to anybody and everybody, Engel said. He was a great guy and a great friend and he will be missed by everyone.
