MOUNT VERNON, Wash. — Donations and support for Mike McClaughry have poured in after the officer was shot in the head while on patrol in December.

“Fast and Furious” actor Chad Linberg wanted to use his fame to help his family friend.

“I’ve known Mick for a lot of years,” Lindberg told KING 5. “It was a no-brainer when this happened that I wanted to do something.”

The actor, whose father is also a Mount Vernon officer, held a benefit Saturday. He donated every dollar made from the movie screening and autograph signing to McClaughry’s recovery.
