South County CPKs Host ‘Pizza With A Purpose’ For Fallen Officer

SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, CA — A fundraiser scheduled Wednesday will pay homage to slain Newman police corporal Ronil Singh. The 33-year-old officer was killed during a suspected DUI traffic stop in December, according to officials. On Jan. 30, "Pizza With a Purpose" will be held in his honor at all CPK locations across the state.

The day after Christmas, Singh initiated a traffic stop at Merced Street and Eucalyptus Avenue and reported "shots fired" over the radio moments later, according to Stanislaus County deputies.
Singh, who had been with the agency since 2011, was found at the scene with gunshot wounds and died at a hospital. He was a husband and father of a 5-month-old son.

The accused shooter, Gustavo Perez Arriaga, and seven accused accomplices were arrested days later following a massive statewide manhunt, according to authorities.

Those interested in participating in the fundraiser must print the flyer and bring it to the restaurant. Twenty percent will be donated from each check. All proceeds will benefit Singh's family, according to the flyer.

CPK restaurants are located across Orange County, including Bella Terra, The Shops at Rossmoor, Garden Walk, Fashion Island, Laguna Hills Mall and Irvine Spectrum and more. Find the closest CPK near you.
