Former President Donald Trump will travel to New York to pay his respects to the New York Police Department (NYPD) officer killed in the line of duty earlier this week.
Officer Jonathan Diller was killed during a traffic stop Monday in Queens; he’s the first NYPD officer to die on the job in more than two years. His wake is scheduled for Thursday.
“President Trump is moved by the invitation to join NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller’s family and colleagues as they deal with his senseless and tragic death,” Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt told the Associated Press.
Diller’s funeral will be held Saturday in New York City.
Both suspects in the shooting, the gunman and his passenger, were arrested Tuesday and Wednesday. Guy Rivera was charged with murder, while Lindy Jones was arraigned on illegal weapons possession charges.
