Officer Brian Shaw's funeral takes place Wednesday at Mount St. Peter Church in New Kensington. It was in the western Pennsylvania town that the 25-year-old was shot and killed on Friday night.
Authorities have charged 29-year-old Rahmael Holt with fatally shooting the officer. Holt was arrested in Pittsburgh on Tuesday after a multi-day manhunt. During his arraignment, Holt said he wanted to hire a private attorney.
Authorities say Shaw stopped a vehicle that Holt was riding in and Holt fled on foot.
Shaw, who was wearing a bullet-proof vest, pursued Holt and was shot multiple times. It doesn't appear that Shaw returned fire.
