All are welcomed to attend the public memorial service is scheduled for 11 a.m. Friday at the Oracle Arena, 7000 Coliseum Way in Oakland. Organizers are asking attendees to arrive early. The Rev. Jayson Landeza, Police Department chaplain, will lead and conduct the service.


In the wake of the killing of four police officers by a lone gunman Saturday, the Oakland Police Officers Association has set up three trust accounts thus far for the families of the fallen officers, and officials are planning a Friday public memorial service that is expected to draw at least 10,000 people to Oracle Arena.

Sgt. Mark Dunakin, 40, of Tracy; Erv Romans, 43, of Danville; and Dan Sakai, 35, of Castro Valley, died Saturday after being shot in two related events by Lovelle Mixon, a 26-year-old parolee, who police had pulled over on a routine traffic stop. Police later killed Mixon.

Motorcycle Officer John Hege, 41, of Concord, died Monday at Highland Hospital. Sgt. Pat Gonzales was grazed in his SWAT helmet, and a bullet entered and exited his shoulder. He was treated and released Saturday.

Romans and Dunakin were both married and both had three children; Sakai had one child.

No fund had been set up as of Monday afternoon on behalf of Hege, who had no children, or mailed to the Oakland Police Officer's Association, ttn.: Rennee Hassna, 555 Fifth St., Oakland, CA 94607


Meanwhile at the Police Department, the memorial of flowers, cards and letters to the slain officers' families continued to grow Monday afternoon.

  • I think it is a combination of all at the same time on the face of that black police officer. Police officers are brother-black,white,asian,what­ever they are all brothers in blue. The pain and suffering of one is felt by all. The expression on the face at Mayor Dellums as he looks at the Police Chief pondering what he is about to say, indeed, what can he say??

    The other day a similiar incident occured at the exact same address, fortunely events played out much much differently.

  • did anyone hear about the 3 officers slain responding to a call in , Pittsburgh . His name was Edward Perkovic, 22, .

  • It's ~NOT~ a black/white thing.

    Three Pittsburgh police officers responding to a domestic-disturbance call this morning were killed when a man armed with an AK-47 opened fire on them,

    The gunman, identified by police as Richard Poplawski, 23, started firing from the window of his home in the Stanton Heights neighborhood.

  • This video is still being revised, so pleas click on ' GShotsTV' to your right ->

    I wil be posting a whole new video featuring incredible photos ot the whole event which someone took there and sent me.

    I was there, it was an awesome experience, the entire Oakland Police Department was there. Officers and dispatchers from other city were patroling Oakland and staffing the Oakland Dispatch Center.

    Brothers and sisters all!!

  • My Laptop just died Saturday morning - All my photos for this project and the video itself are on the hard drive, I never had time to back it up when I got back from the Memorial Service in Oakland, really need to get at the data to finish this Memorial Video.

    I'm hoping to find a way to save the data on the laptops' hard drive so that I may finish this project and do another on the funeral service itself.

  • Thank you for your comment. I am still working on this, it is something that I must do out of a sense of duty and honor.

    Many of my co-workers will be Oakland's dispatch center helping as best they can, it was organized by Lisa Hoffman our current Director who use to be with CoCo.

  • @corruptiongovernment He's in hell buddy.

  • I was taught in the Academy :There is no such thing as a routine traffic stop. Ever.

  • Another cop eliminated. Doesn't bother me.

  • Meanwhile your house is being robbed by gangsters as the police waste more taxpayer dollars whining about people's violent reactions to their corrupt terrorist attack on our country. Stupid useless pigs. Go fuck yourselves, you destroy our communities with your trigger happy anti-freedom display of corruption all over the United States. THE POLICE ARE 100% DOMESTIC TERRORISTS.
