Milwaukee police paid tribute Tuesday to one of their own who did not die by violence in the line of duty. At a ceremony at the Civic Center Plaza, the Milwaukee Police Association presented a special plaque to the family of traffic officer Ewald Schaefer, 53 who died in March of natural causes. The presentation was during a ceremony that usually honors police officers who died in the line of duty. No Milwaukee officer has been killed while on duty since 1982.
