Chicago cops to attend marathon runner's funeral

Here's a very nice gesture being carried out by some Chicago police officers. The funeral for Chad Schreiber, a member of the Midland, Michigan police force, will take place on Friday--Schreiber is the runner who died in Sunday's Chicago Marathon because of a heart defect.

Four Chicago cops, all members of the Chicago Police Department Running Club, will attend Schreiber's funeral.

The thirty five year-old Schreiber left behind a wife and three children. A fund has been set up for the three kids.
