The Canyon Lake City Council on Wednesday honored two Riverside County deputies who were killed in the line of duty: Darnell Calhoun and Isaiah Cordero.
The February 8 council meeting began with a moment of silence, followed by Mayor Pro Tem Dale Welty presenting a proclamation for Deputy Calhoun and Councilman Mark Terry presenting a proclamation for Deputy Cordero.
Deputy Calhoun, 30, was fatally shot while responding to a domestic violence call on Friday, January 13, 2023, in the unincorporated area of Lakeland Village. He was a husband and a father of two young boys and a third baby boy on the way.



Deputy Cordero was fatally shot while attempting a traffic stop on Thursday, December 29, 2022, in the City of Jurupa Valley.
