SMITHFIELD, N.C. - ncarol.com -- In honor of fallen Arkansas police officer Brent Scrimshire, Shield Republic Charities yesterday presented a donation check for $11,637.47 to the officer's bereaved family.

The donation was raised through the charity's "Hold the Line" apparel fundraiser and donated to the Brent Scrimshire Memorial Fund.

Officer Scrimshire, who served with the Hot Springs Police Department, was an award-winning police officer killed in the line of duty March 10. He was gunned down after a round of gunfire with a suspect at a traffic stop on Kenwood Street in Hot Springs.

Shield Republic raised funds for the Scrimshire family through the sale of commemorative tees, long-sleeved shirts, hoodies, ladies' tank tops and decals honoring the fallen officer. All net proceeds from the sale were donated to his bereaved family.
