OGLETHORPE (WALB) - A South Georgia Police officer killed last week in a patrol car crash was laid to rest Monday.

Oglethorpe Police Office Richard Angelo Cobb was on duty last Thursday morning, but not responding to a call, when his patrol car left the road and struck a tree.

An autopsy was performed to determine if a medical condition caused him to crash.

Cobb has previously worked as a deputy for the Crisp County Sheriff's Office.

The 37-year-old is survived by his wife and two children.
