More than 800 police officers, some of them standing in the rain for hours, paid tribute Friday to an officer killed in the line of duty this week. Michael Briggs, 35, was shot in the head in a dark alley way Monday as he responded to a domestic violence call. He died Tuesday. Officers from across the state marched in and saluted Briggs' coffin at the Lambert Funeral Home. They work his badge number - 83 - on their jackets.
Briggs' two young sons, Brian and Mitchell, wore their father's badges and bike patrol shirts at the wake.
