A memorial 5K run in honor of fallen South Jacksonville police officer Scot Fitzgerald is being planned in the village.
The annual race was previously used to help raise funds for the police and fire departments, but will now provide education funds for Fitzgerald’s children.
Matthew Witkos with our reporting partners at WICS ABC Newschannel has this report.
