Milwaukee mourns the death of police officer Kendall Corder during procession
Residents gathered and made their way through the streets of Milwaukee on July 1 to honor Corder, who had been on the force for six years.
The fallen officer was fatally shot June 26 when he and another officer, Christopher McCray, responded to a call of shots fired in an alley in the 2200 block of North 24th Place.
McCray suffered injuries to his foot that were not life-threatening injuries and is expected to recover.
The procession stretched from Medical Examiner's Office on Highland Avenue to the Max A. Sass & Sons Funeral Home on Oklahoma Avenue.
Corder's slaying was the sixth death in the line of duty death of a Milwaukee police officer since 2018, and the 68th in the department's 169-year history.

Two Americans injured in attack on GHF aid distribution center in Khan Yunis
The attack was part of "explicit plans to target American personnel, Palestinian aid workers, and the civilians who rely on our sites for food," GHF said. Two Americans working at a humanitarian aid distribution center in Khan Yunis were injured in an attack on the facility on Saturday, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation said in a statement. The attack was part of "explicit plans to target American personnel, Palestinian aid workers, and the civilians who rely on our sites for food. Today's attack tragically affirms these warnings," GHF wrote. The individuals were injured when two assailants attacked the facility with grenades. They are currently receiving medical treatment and are in stable conditions, the statement said. No local aid workers or civilians were harmed, GHF confirmed. The IDF confirmed that it received an update from GHF on Saturday morning that terrorists had launched grenades into the aid distribution site in Rafah while Palestinian civilians were still present. Two American workers were wounded as a result, the military confirmed. Following the explosion, soldiers evacuated the injured for medical treatment. The GHF, an Israeli and US-backed NGO, began operating in Gaza in May to distribute humanitarian aid. GHF has disclosed that Hamas had placed bounties on American security workers in the enclave and that 12 of the organization's local staff members had been murdered in its latest update on the situation in Gaza, while others have been tortured. 'Hamas has placed bounties on both our American security personnel and Palestinian aid workers, offering cash rewards to anyone who injures or kills them." In its statement on Saturday the GHF said that it will remain fully committed to its aid distribution mission. "Attempts to disrupt this life-saving work will only deepen the crisis. We will continue to stand with the people of Gaza and do everything in our power to deliver the aid they so urgently need."
