Auburn Police Start Memorial Fund For Slain Officer's Family
AUBURN (CBS) - The Auburn Police Department set up a memorial fund Monday for the wife and children of Officer Ronald Tarentino.

"Words can not adequately express our Department's appreciation for the outpouring of support that we have received after the tragic loss of Officer Tarentino," police said in a statement on their Facebook page.
