I’ve resigned myself to the fact these triggered folks need to be put in an insane asylum or shot dead. My country would be a whole lot better off.

A public law-enforcement memorial service is set for 11 a.m Friday at the UC Davis ARC, 760 Orchard Road on campus. A Davis Police Department honor guard has been stationed with the fallen officer, who passed away shortly after being transported to the UC Davis Medical Center, and will remain by her side until she is buried.

“That’s a very difficult detail for the officers, but something that’s very important to us,” Pytel said, adding that chaplains and trauma-support counselors have been enlisted to help Corona’s grieving colleagues who spent much of Friday consoling one another and sharing memories of the officer they all considered their friend.

“That’s all part of the process,” Pytel said. “Everybody here is close, and takes care of each other.”

Also bolstering the staff has been the response from members the community, who throughout Friday and Saturday brought to the Fifth Street police station flowers, food and handwritten notes and posters honoring Corona and thanking her fellow officers for their service.

“We just wanted to recognize a hero,” said Davis resident Mary Ostrem, who along with her 3-year-old daughter Lucy delivered a bouquet of flowers.

Leigh Harrington, also of Davis, placed a box of chocolates amid the memorial, saying she did so in “support of the Davis Police Department and all that our police officers do.”

“My heart goes out to these people who are looking out for us each day,” Harrington said. “We take it for granted that we live in such a safe place. It’s jarring for us for something like this to happen in our community.”

Community mourns

After the crime-scene tape came down along Fifth Street on Friday afternoon, a second memorial was erected at the shooting site, starting with the erection of a “thin blue line” U.S. flag by a small group of Davis police officers and firefighters.

The tributes arrived throughout the afternoon and well into Saturday: flowers, candles, balloons, notes, even sidewalk chalk art bearing the words “rising star” — words Pytel used describe Corona as he announced her death late Thursday night. Blue ribbons adorned trees and sign posts throughout the downtown and beyond.

Corona was recruited to work at the Davis Police Department by a retired assistant police chief who was a professor at Yuba College, which she attended. The police department had just launched a program for aspiring police officers, paying the tuition of temporary part-time employees, then “hopefully putting them through the police academy and hiring them,” said Davis Police Chief Darren Pytel.

“Natalie was the very first person that we hired in this program,” Pytel continued.

She worked part-time starting in 2016 as a community services officer, a non-sworn position that assists with various duties within the department.

Corona attended the Sacramento Police Department officer academy last year, graduating in June. She was one of six new officers sworn in by Pytel on Aug. 2.

“She had a personality that was just energizing,” Pytel said. “It didn’t matter who it was in the department — the janitors or me, the police chief — she just wanted to be everybody’s friend, and was.

“Truly, I don’t think I’ve ever worked with anybody quite like her, that has just been able to make so many friends, and leave so many impressions with so many people,” he added.

Corona hailed from the small, close-knit town of Arbuckle, where she lived with her parents, Jose Merced Corona and Lupe Corona, and her three younger sisters. She graduated in 2014 from Pierce High School in Arbuckle, where she was involved in volleyball, basketball and was voted homecoming queen.

She drove the approximately 40 miles to her job in Davis, at one point volunteering to work for free when the funding for her CSO position ran out.

“She was very proud of the fact that she’d got on with Davis Police Department,” her father, said during an interview Friday with Fox40 News, “and she really liked the department. She just enjoyed her job. She would come home, she’d be beaming.”

Merced Corona, who recently was sworn in as a supervisor in Colusa County and was a sheriff’s deputy for more than 26 years, described his daughter as “very dedicated to the profession that she selected, law enforcement. She was extremely proud of accomplishing, at 22, being out there on patrol.”

He told a story of his daughter’s enthusiasm for her chosen career.

“She would always call me ‘brother cop,’ ” Merced Corona said. “I would tell her, ‘You can’t call me brother cop ’cause you’re not there yet; you don’t have a right to call me brother cop.’ ”

He continued, “When she graduated from the academy, she says, ‘OK, so now can I call you brother cop?’ I said, ‘Yeah, absolutely you can call me brother cop.’ ”

The Corona family has a proud association with law enforcement, Merced Corona said.

“I have two nephews who are CHP sergeants; more of our family are kind of leaning toward the law enforcement professions. It’s still an honorable profession and … it makes me really proud when we have another relative that come(s) into this profession.”

Black Lives Matter activists arrested as protests continue over death of Jameek Lowery

On Jan 5., Lowery walked into Paterson police headquarters while broadcasting a Facebook Live asking for water. Police can be heard telling Lowery, who had said he was on ecstasy and paranoid, they were not allowed to give him water.

Doctors told police that Lowery also had necrosis of the bowel, a condition in which blood flow to the intestines ceases, according to police.
Both the mayor and police director attributed apparent bruising to medical treatments at the hospital, including nasal intubation.



Police say the 27-year-old was suffering from bacterial meningitis for possibly months or years. The infectious disease can be fatal.
