August Heart

August Heart is a detective at Central City Police Department as well as a close friend of Barry Allen.

Early Life
August Heart was a police officer for the Central City Police Department and close friend of Barry Allen. Heart's brother Jorge was also a cop in the department.

One day, Jorge was shot dead while on patrol. August was devastated by his brother's death and pursued justice. Though there were no witnesses of the crime, evidence collected by the department lead to the arrest of a career criminal named Billy Parks.

However, before Parks' trial could go to court, the evidence against him was destroyed when Barry Allen's forensics lab was struck by lightning. Barry went into a coma (and later gained superspeed from the incident), but, without proper evidence, the case was dropped. Heart was distraught, feeling his brother's killer had gone free.
