The brother of fallen police officer Ronil Singh broke down in tears while thanking the law enforcement officials who apprehended his brothers murderer during a press conference on Friday.
“Please, bear with me. This is not easy for me. Ronil Singh was my older brother. Yes, he is not coming back, but there are a lot of people out there that miss him. And a lot of law enforcement people that I dont know worked days and nights to make this happen,” Reggie Singh said.

Officer Singh, who was a legal immigrant from Fiji, stopped Gustavo Perez Arriaga, 32, early Wednesday morning suspecting him of driving under the influence. After Singh called in the stop, Arriaga opened fire at Singh, who was shot but was able to report his own injury before he died.
A manhunt ensued until he was apprehended on Friday.
Arriaga has two previous DUI arrests and was in the country illegally.
