Hundreds of law enforcement officers are paying respects to Christopher Reeves, a southern New Jersey police officer killed in the line of duty.

Officer Christopher Reeves' viewing is taking place at Lakeside Middle School in Millville. A memorial service will follow before a procession to Mount Pleasant Cemetery.

Reeves is survived by his wife, who also is a Millville police officer, and their 2-year-old son.
