KERA News

Top Stories: Texas sent off another of its officers killed in the line of duty last week. The funeral for Dallas Police Officer Michael Krol was the fourth of five.

And the impromptu memorial in front of Dallas Police headquarters drew two visitors who understand the pain. Their husbands, New York City cops, were killed by a gunman two years ago.

You can listen to North Texas stories weekdays at 8:22 a.m. and 6:20 p.m. on KERA 90.1 FM.
