An Oak Park police detective killed in the line of duty will be laid to rest Thursday.
Det. Allan Reddins was shot and killed while responding to a report of a person with a gun at a bank in the Chicago suburb on Black Friday.
A wake and funeral service will be held Thursday at Apostolic Church of God in Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood. Reddins' wake is scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m. before a funeral service at 11 a.m.
The services will be streamed live on YouTube.
Those interested in donating to support Reddins' family can do so via Oak Park Lodge #8, Fraternal Order of Police, which is collecting donations on Zelle at oakparklodge8@gmail.com. A QR code to contribute to the fund is also available here.
According to the village, funds raised will directly benefit the Reddins' family, particularly Reddins' son, who attends college out-of-state, and his mother, who is receiving medical treatment.
The funeral follows a candlelight vigil and visitation service earlier this week.
Police announced charges Saturday against a Chicago man in connection with the killing of Reddins, who fatally shot Reddins after police responded to calls of an armed man leaving a bank in downtown in Oak Park.
