HOUSTON – The City of Nassau Bay announced the funeral details for slain Sgt. Kaila Sullivan who was killed during an incident Tuesday.
A funeral service will be held at 10 a.m. Wednesday at Grace Church in southeast Houston. The church, located at 14505 Gulf Freeway, was the same church where slain Houston police Sgt. Christopher Brewster’s funeral was held Thursday. The public is invited to attend.
Sullivan, 43, was killed during a traffic stop when the suspect she was trying to arrest, got away, jumped in a vehicle and ran her over, officials said. The 16-year veteran of the Nassau Bay Police Department was rushed to a hospital but she succumbed to her injuries.
The suspect, later identified as 21-year-old Tavores D. Henderson, was arrested and charged with capital murder.
