A Georgia police officer who grew up in Middlesex County was killed in a motorcycle crash last week, according to reports.
David L. Hough, 31, was off duty when he crashed near an exit ramp along Interstate 20 west in Newton County on Memorial Day afternoon, according to 11Alive.com.
The College Park officer was born in Perth Amboy and grew up in Piscataway, according to MyCentralJersey.com. His parents still live in town.
Hough is also survived by his sister, maternal grandmother and many aunts, uncles nieces, nephews and cousins, his online obituary said. He is a graduate of North Carolina Central University in Durham, N.C.
A funeral will be held this morning in Piscataway.
