Trooper Schneider
Trooper Evan Schneider



Montana Highway Patrol Trooper Evan Schneider died in the line of duty on Tuesday, August 26, 2008. While attempting to pull over a vehicle, an oncoming pickup truck crossed the center line and struck the trooper's car head-on. Trooper Schneider and the driver of the pick-up died at the scene.

Trooper Schneider, of Kalispell, is a 4-year veteran of the Montana Highway Patrol. He is the 6th Montana state trooper to die in the line of duty in the Highway Patrol's 73-year history. Schneider, who joined the MHP in January 2004, is survived by his wife, Carrie, and his brother, James, who also is a trooper stationed in the Kalispell district.

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