Thousands of people showed up at Givnish Funeral Home last night, to pay their respects to Christopher Fitzgerald, a Temple Police Officer who was gunned down by a thug while doing his job, protecting people.

Traffic was not detoured away but it was at times cut to one lane as dozens of police vehicles lines the streets as the officers went in to pay their respects. Today, there will be a procession north on I-95 and many surface streets and entry/exit ramps to I-95 will be temporarily closed to traffic.
