MOORESVILLE, N.C -- Officer Jordan Sheldon paid the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty, and the entire community came out to honor him. Funeral services were held at Calvary Church at 11 a.m. Friday.

Sheldon was a six-year veteran and was performing a traffic stop when he was shot and killed. Over the last few days, hundreds of flowers, signs, and cards have piled up around a Mooresville police car outside of police headquarters, placed there by people who both knew the officer and those who just want to comfort the department. Friends say he was a good person.

Following the funeral, City of Davidson encouraged people to gather at the Griffith Street overpass at 1 p.m. to honor Sheldon.

After the services, he was escorted back to Mooresville by a public safety vehicle.
