The officer was identified as 48-year-old Miosotis Familia, a 12-year veteran of the force and mother of three. Familia died soon after she was rushed to a local hospital. The gunman, 34-year-old Alexander Bonds, was killed in a shootout with police just blocks from where Familia was shot.
The shooting unfolded around 12:30 a.m. as Familia and her partner sat in a mobile command unit filling out paperwork.
