Hundreds pay tribute to slain California officer Ronil Singh who was gunned down after stopping an illegal immigrant
Hundreds of cops packed a California church Saturday in final salute to police officer Ronil Singh who was killed the day after Christmas when he stopped an illegal immigrant suspected of driving drunk.
Reggie Singh told the church his family, including his brother, “legally migrated” to the U.S. in 2003.
Ronil Singh, 33, a member of the Newman Police Department, was eulogized as a dedicated cop and a loving husband and father who grew up in his native Fiji watching cop dramas on TV and dreaming of being a police officer in the U.S.
“He told me he came to this country with one purpose that one purpose was to become a police officer,” tearful Newman Police Chief Randy Richardson said during his eulogy.
Gustavo Perez Arriaga, 32, a Mexican national, has been accused of killing Singh around 1 a.m. Dec. 26. He was arrested two days after the murder as he prepared to flee to Mexico, officials said.
The case has rekindled a debate over California's sanctuary law that limits cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
DEMOCRATS, YOU OWN THIS!
