The body of OPP Sgt. Eric Mueller will leave Ottawa Saturday in a 37-kilometre procession to Rockland, Ont., east of the capital. Ottnews
The OPP are inviting members of the public to join other first responders to witness the procession from highway overpasses along the route or along the shoulder of the bi-directional portion of Highway 17. Police ask that those wishing to pay their respects not stop on the multi-lane portion of the highways to exit their vehicles, as this poses a serious safety concern.
A police funeral will be held at the Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa on Thursday. Details will be announced once they have been finalized, the OPP said. Mueller was a 21-year veteran of the force who started his policing career in Ottawa in 2002. In 2006, he was hired as a provincial constable and in 2018, he was promoted to sergeant.
