The California Highway Patrol is investigating and has not made any arrests.

An online fundraiser for an Alameda County Sheriff’s Office recruit who was killed in a freeway shooting raised more than $5,000 in its first hour Friday.

He was 28. Sheriff’s Sgt. J.D. Nelson said he is believed to be the first department recruit ever to be killed during his training period. “David was someone who would step into a room and draw everyone’s attention,” read a tribute on the fundraiser from David’s sister Barbara Nguyen and fundraiser co-creator Aaron Lam. “Anyone blessed enough to have met him would immediately be drawn to his passion and love for his fellow man; he was instilled with a desire to serve his community and show what human kindness truly was.”
