Detective Loubet Zaccard, Star #3790, aged 47 years, was a 22 year, 2 month, 10 day veteran of the Chicago Police Department, assigned to the 41st District – Rogers Park.
On July 23, 1946, Detective Zaccard and his partner were on their way to a callbox to report back to their station. On the way they saw Patrolman Donald J. McGinley struggling with a subject identified as 35-year-old Charles Rayford. Rayford was causing a disturbance in a restaurant on the city limits near Evanston, Illinois and Officer McGinley was attempting to escort him out. A struggle ensued and Rayford gained control over Officer McGinley’s club at which time Officer McGinley drew his revolver. Officer McGinley ordered Rayford to drop the club as Detective Zaccard approached Rayford from behind and grabbed his arms. Officer McGinley then lunged forward and stuck Rayford in the head with the butt of his revolver. The handgun discharged and the bullet struck Detective Zaccard in the face mortally wounding him. Detective Zaccard was transported to St. Francis hospital in Evanston where he was pronounced dead on arrival on July 23, 1946.
