Riverside County Sheriff's Deputy Isaiah Cordero was fatally shot during a traffic stop. Interment will be private but a public funeral will be Friday.
Funeral services will be held Friday for Riverside County Sheriff’s Deputy Isaiah Cordero, who was shot and killed during a traffic stop on Dec. 29.
Services for Cordero will be held at Harvest Christian Fellowship Church, 6115 Arlington Ave. in Riverside at 11 a.m. Friday, according to the sheriff’s department. Private interment services will also be held, but will not be open to the public. Cordero, 32, joined the department in 2014 and most recently worked as a motorcycle officer. He was assigned to the Jurupa Valley Station and completed his motorcycle training in September.
During a traffic stop last week, a driver shot Cordero on Golden West Avenue in Jurupa Valley. Witnesses called 911 and tried to help Cordero until paramedics arrived, according to the Riverside Sheriff’s Assn. He died from his injuries at Riverside Community Hospital. It was unclear why Cordero pulled over the driver, later identified as William Shea McKay, 44, who then led police on a freeway chase. McKay shot at police during the pursuit southbound on the 15 Freeway to Norco.
