A memorial fund has been set up for the four sons of a veteran Fulton County police officer killed last week in an ambush-style attack.
Just before 1 a.m. March 4, Det. Terence Green and six other officers responded to a report of shots fired inside a home in The Parks of Cedar Grove subdivision in south Fulton County, police said. The officers talked to the caller at the home in the 7200 block of Parks Trail, received a description of the suspect and began a search for the suspect.
Amanuel Menghesha, the 42-year-old Fairburn man accused of shooting and killing Green, was booked March 5 into the Fulton County jail on murder and aggravated assault charges, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution previously reported.
Green's funeral will be at 1 p.m. Friday at World Changers Church International in College Park. Before the service, officers from various agencies are expected to participate in a processional that will leave Turner Field at 11 a.m.
Donations to the memorial fund for Green’s sons can be made at any Wells Fargo Bank, Fulton police Lt. Scott McBride said in a statement.
