EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — As many as 1,000 police and fire vehicles are expected to form a procession through the Eugene-Springfield area on the way to Friday’s memorial service for slain Eugene Officer Chris Kilcullen.

The service is scheduled for 2 p.m. at the University of Oregon in Matthew Knight Arena, which has room for more than 12,000 people to attend.

The Register Guard reports members of the public who wish to attend the service should take shuttle buses from the Lane Event Center’s parking area.

Kilcullen is the first Eugene officer killed in the line of duty since 1934.

A 57-year-old Springfield woman, Cheryl D. Kidd, is charged with aggravated murder.
