Funeral arrangements are pending and will be announced when details are available, Britt said. “We would sincerely like to thank the Richmond community, and those who have supported Seara, her family, and the Department from near and far,” Britt said in the statement. “Thank you to all of those who have shown unbelievable support throughout this very difficult time including the Dayton Police Department, The Indiana State Police, Indiana State Fraternal Order of Police, Richmond Fire Department and Wayne County Sheriff’s Department, as well as many other agencies. “The family is extremely grateful for the massive amount of support from the community,” Britt said. “We kindly ask that you respect the family’s privacy during this difficult time.” Burton was taken off life support on Thursday, Sept. 1, a little over three weeks after being shot at close range during a traffic stop.

Eric Holcomb to request all flags across Indiana be lowered on the day of Burton’s funeral.
