Diller’s new badge number is 110, to honor his young son’s birthday. His son, Ryan, was seen being held just steps behind his mother on the altar of St. Rose of Lima. In her closing remarks she stated, “Rest in peace Jonathan, the man who captured my heart and now all of New York’s.” Diller, 31, was fatally shot during a routine traffic stop in Queens on Monday. Thousands of NYPD’s Finest and officers from neighboring states of New Jersey and Connecticut descended on Massapequa to honor the fallen cop. Ahead of the emotional funeral service, flower arrangements were seen being carried into the church. Former President Donald Trump and his wife, Melania, were among mourners who sent arrangements. #jonathandiller #nypd #police #NYC The New York Post is your source for breaking news, news about New York, sports, business, entertainment, opinion, real estate, culture, fashion, and more.
