WISN: First Pitch at Brewers Game Honors Jennifer Sebena

Member of the Wauwatosa Police Department were on hand at Miller Park Friday night as an officer honored the memory of Jennifer Sebena by throwing out the ceremonial first pitch.

Less than two weeks after her name was placed on the National Law Enforcement Officer Memorial in Washington, D.C., slain Wauwatosa police officer Jennifer Sebena was honored again at a brief ceremony at Miller Park.

Wauwatosa police officer Katie Gierach, a friend of Sebena's, threw out the ceremonial first pitch before Friday's Brewers-Pirates game, Patch's media partners at WISN 12 News reported.

"Because of the way she lived, the way she served. She served with professionalism and excellence," said Gierach, who wore Sebena's badge number at the ceremony.
