Officer Tuder was shot and killed in the line of duty on Sunday.
“Officer Tuder gave his life doing what he loved, protecting the people of Mobile,” Ivey said. “This senseless tragedy has sadly taken the life of yet another Mobile police officer, far too soon, and stands as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who wear the badge.”
Per Ivey’s instruction, flags will remain at half-staff until Sunday at sundown.
