CAMBRIDGE, MASS. (WHDH) - A new exhibit is in place at MIT’s library in memory of fallen officer Sean Collier.
The exhibit, which is made of granite and carved into the shape of a hand, is meant to embody strength and offer a sheltered space for reflection.
On display at the exhibit is a collection of items left in the officer’s honor after he was killed in 2013.
Collier died five years ago today, three days after the Boston Marathon bombings. He was killed by one of the Tsarnaev brothers while patrolling the MIT campus.
Today, we honor & remember Officer Sean A. Collier #179. Gone, but never forgotten. #CollierStrong #BostonStrong #StrongerAfter5 pic.twitter.com/NLyWq7zvgm
