An Orlando police sergeant who was gunned down by a wanted fugitive was being remembered Saturday at her funeral service for mentoring youth and her dedication to the community she grew up in. Hundreds of officers, deputies and central Florida residents are gathering at the First Baptist Church in Orlando to honor Master Sgt. Debra Clayton, who authorities say was gunned down Monday by a fugitive who had been wanted for the murder of his pregnant ex-girlfriend. Authorities say Clayton, 42, was gunned down outside a Wal-Mart store in Orlando last Monday after she approached 41-year-old Markeith Loyd. The master sergeant was one of the officers who responded to the shooting at Pulse nightclub in which 49 patrons were killed.
