Police have created a memorial fund for the Prince William County officer who was fatally shot on her first day on the job.
The Prince William County Police Association has created the fund for the family of Officer Ashley Guindon. The association will collect all donations and send them directly to Guindon's mother.
- If possible, checks should be made out to "PWCPA in memory of OFC Ashley Guindon," authorities said.
- Anyone who wishes to donate can leave their donation at any county police station or mail it directly to the police association at: Prince William County Police Association, Officer Guindon Memorial Fund, P. O. Box 1845, Manassas, VA 20108.
Police are warning people not to donate to GoFundMe pages that purport to be raising money for Guindon's family. Police determined that at least one fraudulent page was set up in the officer's name.
Guindon's funeral is scheduled for Tuesday. She was fatally shot Saturday night after responding to a domestic call in Woodbridge, Virginia. It was her first shift on the job; she had been sworn in Friday.
An Army staff sergeant, 32-year-old Ronald Hamilton, has been charged in the deaths of his wife, Crystal Hamilton and Guidon. Two other officers were also injured and will have a long road to recovery, the police chief said.
