NEW YORK — JetBlue Airways will provide free flights to all officers wishing to attend the funeral of slain New York Police Department Officer Randolph Holder, WFLA reported.
The company said it was honored to be able to help shuttle officers who wish to pay tribute to the fallen cop.
Last December, JetBlue extended the same gesture for the funerals of slain NYPD Officers Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos.
Holder was shot on Oct. 20 in the head as he responded to a call of shots fired and a stolen bicycle. Holder pursued the suspect, Tyrone Howard, and he fired on the officer.
Howard, 33, was taken into custody on murder and robbery charges.
Police Commissioner William Bratton told the publication funeral arrangements are still being finalized.
