Hundreds of people have paid tribute to a New York City police officer shot and killed while sitting inside her police vehicle last week.
The gathering Saturday night included colleagues of Police Officer Miosotis Familia and many from the Bronx neighborhood where she worked.
Police say a deranged man shot through the window just early Wednesday morning. Officer Miosotis Familia was struck in the head. Soon after, officers fatally shot the gunman after they say he drew a weapon on them.
Flower bouquets lined the sidewalk outside Familia’s 46th Precinct stationhouse.
Familia’s sister, Adriana Sanchez, thanked those who attended the gathering. She said her sister always volunteered to work as much as she could.
The slain officer is survived by three children, including 12-year-old twins.

Hundreds of people have paid tribute to a New York City police officer shot and killed while sitting inside her police vehicle last week except for your deranged democRAT Mayor Bill Wilhelm DeBalsio who ran away to his motherland Germany to protest against The President of the United States. The real reason he went was that he got some free first class tickets to go protest but he went to visit his son who is in school there in naziland. What a JERK.
