The portion of State Road 54 running through Wesley Chapel, Florida was named for Trooper James “Brad” Crooks, who gave his life protecting the citizens of the state. He was the third law enforcement officer to die on May 19, 1998, following a tragic chain of events that also left a little boy, Joey Bennett, and two Tampa police detectives, Randy Bell and Ricky Childers, dead. The naming honors those who were lost and those who serve the citizens of Florida in public service every day of every year.
