ROSEVILLE, Calif. — An outpouring of support for the Sacramento Police Department and the family of fallen Officer Tara O'Sullivan will continue Thursday at a memorial organized by the department.
Officer O'Sullivan was shot and killed by a gunman while responding to a domestic disturbance call at a home in North Sacramento. The 26-year-old was a recent graduate of the city's police academy and earned her badge in December 2018.
