The memorial will be held at the Champaign County Courthouse, and follows up the Champaign Police Department’s memorial service the same morning. The services honor law enforcement officers who lost their lives in the line of duty.

These events take place amid National Police Week on May 12-18, which provides an opportunity to recognize police officers and their sacrifice.
