The nonprofit Heroes Compass is partnering with Sandy’s Donuts in supporting the Fargo Police Department. At all locations in Fargo and West Fargo, they are making a limited edition thin blue line donut.

Heroes Compass says the donuts were in high demand and they sold out on Tuesday. On Wednesday, you are asked to pre-order if you are interested in a blue line donut.

A free-will donation will also get you a blue porch light from Heroes Compass, while supplies last. Valley News Live is told more than $5,000 was raised on Tuesday alone. All proceeds of the blue line donuts and blue lights go to the officers impacted by the July 14 shooting, which killed officer Jake Wallin and critically injured Officer Andrew Dotas, officer Tyler Hawes, and civilian Karlee Koswick.

A West Fargo veteran who was known to quietly help those returning from deployments is being remembered and honored by somebody who knew him best. His son.
