OAK LAWN, Ill. — Funeral services with full police honors are being held Monday for fallen Chicago police officer Luis Huesca, the third time in less than a year the Chicago Police Department will lay to rest a young officer.

Services are taking place at St. Rita of Cascia Shrine Chapel in Chicago at 10 a.m., before his interment at Rosehill Cemetery on the city’s North Side.

On Sunday, mourners gathered to pay their respects to Huesca in a public visitation at Blake-Lamb Funeral Home in Oak Lawn, as the search continues for the person who gunned him down near his home in the Gage Park neighborhood just over a week ago.

The visitation came a week after Huesca was fatally shot in the 3100 block of West 56th Street while returning home from work.

Huesca, who had been with the department for six years, died while still in uniform.

Authorities have since classified Huesca’s death as “in the line of duty,” which will allow his family to receive survivors’ death benefits.

Those who stopped by Sunday to pay their respects to Huesca described his killing as senseless.

“It’s a tragedy that once again we are standing in this parking lot, across the street from this funeral home, mourning the loss of another fallen hero,” said retired CPD Chief of Detectives Eugene Roy.

Woodcrafter Juan Cayetano also attended and brought a special gift that he crafted for Huesca’s family. 

“We’ve been doing memorials for fallen officers and first responders, and this time we’re here to donate this memorial for Officer Huesca,” Cayetano said.

While the community mourns the loss of the fallen officer, the search for his killer has intensified.

Rewards totaling $100,000 are now being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of 22-year-old Xavier L. Tate, who police say is wanted in connection with Huesca’s death. On Friday, a source told NewsNation affiliate WGN that an arrest warrant had been issued for Tate, but he has not yet been taken into custody. 

Crime Stoppers and the ATF are offering a combined $25,000 reward for information leading to Tate’s arrest. The Chicago Police Memorial Foundation, FBI and the Fraternal Order of Police are also offering a combined $75,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction.

Those with information on Tate’s whereabouts can reach out to Area One Detectives at 312-747-8380, or anonymous tips can be filed online at cpdtip.com.
