In Memory of Trooper Mike Haynes
1980-2009

Trooper Haynes
Trooper Mike Haynes

Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Mike Haynes died in the line of duty on Friday, March 27, 2009. Trooper Haynes succumbed to injuries sustained five days earlier when a car being operated by an intoxicated driver struck his patrol car head-on on US 93 near Kalispell. That driver was also killed in the collision.

Trooper Haynes, 28, was sworn in as a trooper in August 2006. He is the third Montana Trooper to be killed in the line of duty in the past 18 months, all in the Kalispell area, and becomes the seventh in the Patrol's 74 year history.

Trooper Haynes is survived by his wife Tawny, his two young children Taryn and Elias, and his parents, John and Melody Haynes of Kalispell.

Please join the men and women of the American Association of State Troopers in keeping the family of Trooper Haynes and the men and women of the Montana Highway Patrol in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
