Multiple sources say that Sheriff Martin collapsed and hit his head during a Congressional Records presentation at FSCC on Tuesday June 9th. FortScott.biz reached out to the Sheriff’s office for an official statement soon after the event, but no one was available for comment. The Sheriff’s office Facebook page was updated shortly after 3pm on Tuesday to say they were closed for the rest of the day.

Posts on Bourbon County GOP, Senator Marshall, Bourbon County Sheriff’s and The City of Fort Scott’s Facebook pages are  full of comments with calls for prayers for his quick recovery.

2:34 update statement from Bill Martin’s Family:

Sheriff Martin suffered a medical emergency during an awards assembly on 6/9/26. As of this morning the Sheriff is in critical condition but is stable at this time. The family and the Bourbon County Sheriff’s Office appreciates the prayers and everyone who respected our privacy during this time.

FortScott.biz will update with more information when it becomes available.
