TREMONTON - Box Elder County residents showed their true colors when it came to supporting the families of the fallen policemen who recently lost their lives trying to help members of their community.
The Box Elder County Fair held their livestock auction for youth and their animals on Saturday, Aug. 23.
A half hour before the auction they opened a time when the public could make donations to the families of Sgt. Lee Sorensen and Officer Eric Estrada who were killed in the line of duty on Sunday, Aug. 17.
A third officer, Deputy Mike Allred with the Box Elder County Sheriff’s Office, was also shot, along with his K-9 police service dog, Azula. Both were released and were recognized at last weekend’s rodeo.
