TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Law enforcement officials and people from across Kansas are remembering a Topeka police corporal killed in the line of duty.

Cpl. Jason Harwood will lie in state from 3 to 6 p.m. Friday in Exhibition Hall at the Kansas Expocentre in Topeka. His funeral is Saturday morning.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports officers from the Kansas Highway Patrol, the Topeka Police Department and several other departments gathered at a Topeka church Thursday as a U.S. Honor Flag was delivered.

The flag was brought from Texas to Kansas, where members of the Topeka Police Department honor guard carried it into the church.

Harwood was a decorated 15-year police veteran who was shot after he pulled over a car Sunday.
