Thousands to pay respects to slain Seattle police officer SEATTLE -- Thousands of people were expected to pay final respects today to Seattle police officer Timothy Brenton who was gunned down on Halloween.Tributes for the Marysville man, 39, include a motorcade of more than 1,000 vehicles winding through the Seattle streets that Brenton was sworn to protect. A giant flag in his memory flies atop the Space Needle, while mourners filed into Key Arena for a 1 p.m. ceremony. Brenton leaves behind his wife and two children, ages 8 and 11, as well as a larger family of law enforcement. Every Snohomish County police agency was expected to send representatives to today's service. Community Transit volunteered a bus to carry officials from the Snohomish County Sheriff's Office. Meanwhile, police continue to look for the killer who shot Brenton on Halloween eve as he sat in a parked patrol car reviewing a traffic stop with rookie officer Britt Sweeney, who was wounded. Police are looking for the car from which the shots were fired. It's believed to be a white or beige 1980 to 1983 Datsun 210. |
