Logan warns of traffic delays ahead of funeral services for fallen Tremonton officers

LOGAN, Utah (ABC4) — On Thursday and Friday, funeral services will be held for Sergeant Lee Sorensen and Officer Eric Estrada, who were killed in the line of action on August 17, 2025. Logan City Police Department says travelers will likely experience delays.

On August 17, 2025, Sergeant Lee Sorensen and Officer Eric Estrada were shot and killed as they responded to a domestic disturbance call in Tremonton. Since their deaths, the community has come together to honor their sacrifice and legacies.

Funerals will be held for Officer Estrada and Sergeant Sorensen on Thursday, August 28 and Friday, August 29, respectively, with services held at Utah State University. Since Officer Estrada will be laid to rest in Logan, he will not have a vehicle procession and there may only be minor delays.

On Friday, though, there will be a procession held for Sergeant Sorensen. Logan City Police Department (LPD) estimates that between 500 to 1000 vehicles will be in the procession, and there may be significant delays.

The procession is expected to begin at 12 p.m. on Friday and will start at the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum at Utah State University, at 900 N 800 E. From there, it will head west on 1000 N, turn south on 1000 West, and then turn to go west on State Road 30 heading to the Tremonton-Garland area.

LPD says, “It is anticipated this procession may take 45 minutes to 1 hour to clear 1000 N from 800 E to 1000 W and 1000 West from 1000 North to 200 North.”

During the procession, traffic will only be able to cross 1000 North at 1200 East, 1500 East, and 1600 East in Logan, leading to increased traffic near those roads.

No traffic will be allowed to travel north or south on any other streets along 1000 North or from 200 North to 1000 North on 1000 West. Officers at intersections along those streets will open them to traffic once the procession has passed.

LPD is asking travelers to prepare for delays and says, “If you need to travel through Logan during the time of the procession or after it is through Logan, please plan ahead! Leave early before the procession starts.”
