Public Visitation for Fallen K-9 at CityFirst in Rockford
According to a press release from the Rockford Police Department, a public visitation will be held at CityFirst Church, 5950 Spring Creek Road from 12 noon to 3 pm.

Roads around CityFirst at the intersection of Spring Creek Road and North Mulford will be extremely congested during the public visitation and police memorial service for Nyx, so find alternate routes if possible or expect delays.
Local law enforcement will be handling traffic control in the area before, during, and after the Nyx memorial service.
