Tara O’Sullivan, a 26-year-old Sacramento police officer gunned down while responding to a call, “was a force for good in the world,” the chief said as her family and colleagues grieved at a memorial service Thursday.

“She loved being a police officer,” Sacramento Police Chief Daniel Hahn said. “Tara loved this department and this city and today is our turn to show how much we love Tara and the entire O’Sullivan family.”
