Deputy Sam Brownlee of the Weld County Sheriff’s Office in Colorado was killed in the line of duty after a police chase in 2010. He left behind a wife and two sons, Tanner and Chase.
Sam’s squad car was put up for auction by the sheriff’s office to fund COPS, an organization that helps families of officers killed in the line of duty, and Tanner and his younger brother Chase decided to bid on it.
