CHEHALIS, Wash. — There’s been an outpouring of support for the family of a state trooper who was killed in the line of duty this week and the State Patrol is letting people know how they can help.
The Patrol can’t accept direct monetary donations for the family of Trooper Justin Shaffer.
It’s directing people to the Washington State Patrol Memorial Foundation (WSPMF), a non-profit that supports families of fallen State Patrol officers.
Trooper Shaffer was hit and killed by a fleeing suspect on I-5 near Chehalis on Tuesday.
