Support is pouring in for the family of an officer who was shot in the line of duty in Texas. Department of Public Safety State Trooper Chad Walker leaves behind four children who share his love of livestock and agriculture and his twin seven-year-old daughters had animals up for show at the Limestone County Fair.
The two rabbits the girls raised were the last sale of the night and they went for far more than usual. After selling for $7-thousand, people kept adding to the sale price. A man donated $8-thousand from auctioning off his pig and one by one, the total got higher. In the end, the community raised over $100-thousand to help the Walker family.
“You know, they’re gonna need some help,” says Walker’s longtime friend Stephen Bradley. “From his grandparents down to his babies, you know, if they need anything we’ll be here.”
