OLATHE, Kan. (AP) — A memorial service is scheduled for Thursday for a Johnson County sheriff’s deputy who died when his car was hit by a vehicle during a traffic stop.

Visitation for Master Deputy Brandon Collins will be Wednesday evening at College Church of the Nazarene in Olathe.

The memorial service will be at 2 p.m. Thursday at the same church. He will be buried Saturday in Oilton, Oklahoma.

Collins was killed early Sunday when a truck ran into his patrol car as he was conducting a routine traffic stop.

Adrian Espinosa-Flores, of Kansas City, Kansas, is being held on $2 million bond after being charged Monday with involuntary manslaughter in Collins’ death.

A memorial fund has been setup for the Collins family at any Mainstreet Credit Union location.
