North Carolina sheriff’s office raises $1,400 check for 5-year-old daughter of fallen deputy

TARBORO, N.C. — A little girl who lost her dad in the line of duty got a big holiday surprise from the Edgecombe County Sheriff’s Office, WNCN reports.

Izabella Manning, 5, feels right at home at the Edgecombe County Sheriff’s Office, among the men and women who once worked with her dad.

Deputy David Manning died in a traffic crash last year.

“He was a good soul. He was a good person. He meant a lot to us,” said Deputy Alexus Hill.
