More than 1,500 mourners gathered outside the Riverside County Sheriff’s office in Lake Elsinore on Jan. 17 at a candlelight vigil to honor slain deputy Darnell Calhoun.
Calhoun, 30, was one of two sheriff’s deputies who were killed in the line of duty in shootings just two weeks apart. He was shot on Jan. 13 while responding to an alleged domestic violence incident in the Lakeland Village community that borders the city of Lake Elsinore, about 55 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles. He died in the hospital later that evening.
