Chicago pastor leads public prayer for city's safety and fallen CPD officer

CHICAGO — In a parking lot off 87th Street and the Dan Ryan Expressway, you'll find a weekly gathering in the summer where the community is invited to pray. 'This is my sixth year coming out here every Monday in between Memorial Day and Labor Day to pray for the city, pray for the violence,' Pastor Donovan Price said. Price leads the sessions in a welcoming setting where even his shoes send a message to walk by faith. 'Because we know prayer has some power. Prayer changes things,' he said. During this week's prayer, the group honored the life of fallen Chicago police officer Krystal Rivera and prayed for the safety of the Chicago Police Department. Fallen CPD officer remembered for courage and compassion by loved ones and colleagues 'When an officer is killed, then a member of the family has been lost. A pillar of the community has been lost,' Price said. Rivera, four-year veteran of the Chicago Police Department, was killed after another officer unintentionally shot her during a call on the city's South Side last week. 'We're praying for peace, for her family's heart and spirit. We're praying for some level of understanding for her daughter. We're praying for her partner that he might have some peace,' Price said. 'And there's part of us that should be praying for those who caused this situation in the first place.' Suspect held in connection with accidental fatal shooting of Chicago officer Through some clapping and some singing, they hope to bring peace and healing throughout the city. 'We're thankful for all those who are still making it, trying to make it through,' Price said. The weekly prayer sessions are open to all and held Mondays at 7 p.m. in the Floor & Decor parking lot at 125 W 87th St. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Parents of fallen Morrow County deputy speak out as suspect awaits new court date

MOUNT GILEAD, Ohio (WCMH) – The parents of fallen Morrow County Deputy Daniel 'Weston' Sherrer issued their first public comments since their son was killed during a shootout on Memorial Day. The sheriff's office on Monday released the statement on behalf of Dan and Julie Sherrer, who expressed gratitude to all who reached out to the two of them as well as their daughter and Daniel's fiancée. They thanked the Morrow County community and law enforcement for bringing them comfort during their time of grief. 'Please remember that just like our Weston, law enforcement officers protect us and encounter situations daily that most people fear,' wrote Dan and Julie Sherrer in a statement. 'Yet, they bravely persevere, sometimes making the ultimate sacrifice. Please continue to keep our families in your prayers.' Why central Ohio is seeing fewer tornadoes in 2025 than a year ago Daniel Sherrer responded to a domestic violence call on May 26 when he was fatally shot. He was honored with a 120-mile procession and a memorial ceremony in a high school gymnasium attended by hundreds before being laid to rest at Marion Cemetery. Accused in his death is Brian Wilson, who faces 14 charges, including aggravated murder, and remains in jail with a $5 million bond. The Morrow County Prosecutor's Office intends to seek the death penalty. On Monday, Wilson's case was transferred to Morrow County Common Pleas Court. His initial appearance has yet to be set.

MCPD's Summer Traffic Task Force targets impaired drivers

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Md. (DC News Now) — On Saturday, May 31, there was a fatal collision at the intersection of Sam Eig Highway and Fields Road. Officials with the Montgomery County Police Department (MCPD) say it was caused by a suspected drunk driver. Ten days before the deadly accident, police launched a Summer Traffic Task Force initiative to try to prevent tragedies like this from happening this summer. 'We're in graduation season,' Captain Warren Jensen, leader of MCPD's Traffic Operations Division, said, 'Memorial Day, Fourth of July, summer parties, post-prom, things like that; so we decided it was a good idea to go ahead and step up our enforcement.' PHOTOS: Black bear travels to Herndon after traversing Maryland Jensen said last year's alarming impaired driving fatal collision numbers led them to implement this traffic enforcement initiative. 'Fifty-five percent of all of our fatal collisions involved some sort of substance, and obviously, that's a completely unacceptable number,' he said. Jensen says this is the department's first time doing a traffic enforcement initiative in the summer. 'We've ended up with about 15 officers on average,' he said. 'Sometimes it's 20, depending on staffing.' That number includes officers from other agencies — including the Gaithersburg Police Department, Park Police, Maryland Transportation Authority, Rockville Police and Maryland State Police, Jensen said. MCPD says the two-car collision on May 31 at the intersection of Sam Eig Highway and Fields Road left an 88-year-old woman seriously injured. She later died. Police say the 18-year-old who ran into her is believed to have been impaired at the time. 'The case is still in its infancy,' Jensen said, 'so they're not ready to speak about exactly all the details yet. It's obviously a tragic situation, and alcohol is absolutely suspected.' Losing a loved one in a fatal collision is a pain Richard Leotta knows all too well. His son, Noah, was an MCPD officer who worked in the traffic division until 2015 when he was struck and killed by an impaired driver. 'Hopefully with the enhanced enforcement,' Leotta said, 'people will recognize to think twice and plan ahead, so they can get a safe and sober ride home.' Jensen says the Summer Traffic Task Force Enforcement initiative will go until the end of July. So far, they've made 33 DUI arrests and issued nearly 300 citations. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
