Hundreds turned out for a motorcycle ride to honor slain Temple University Police Sergeant Christopher Fitzgerald and support his family.
"The roots are deep for us in the city. We care very much about everything that’s happened and Christopher has made us nothing but proud, but moreover, our hope is that his murder is a catalyst for the kind of change that’s necessary in this city," said Joel Fitzgerald, father of Sergeant Fitzgerald.a short distance from the Temple University campus in February.
The motorcycle run is as much in support of Sergeant Fitzgerald’s family as much as it is in honor of his service and ultimate sacrifice. "He’s just out there doing his job trying to protect the community, you know, to the students at Temple to the residents of North Philadelphia and then something so tragic happens when he’s just out there trying to make a difference," said Philip Scratchard, President of the Bullets Motorcycle Club.
"He gave his life up for the community and for the city," said Joey D. of Three6Nine Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club. "We’re giving back to him today."
