A trust fund has been set up to support the wife and two young children of a fallen York Regional Police officer.

Const. Garrett Styles, 32, died when he was dragged and pinned by a minivan during a traffic stop on Highway 48, east of Newmarket, Tuesday morning.

The police community and Newmarket residents are now rallying around his family.

A trust fund has been set up for Styles' family in the name of his wife, Melissa Styles, at the Police Credit Union at 18025 Yonge St. in Newmarket, York Regional Police said.

The account number is 2000014 and the transit number is 63612.

Cheques should be made payable to "In Trust for Melissa Styles," police said.

Cheques can be mailed to the credit union. Deposits can also be made at any branch of the Police Credit Union.

Styles, who would have celebrated his 33rd birthday on Sunday, was a seven-year veteran of York Regional Police. His wife is a civilian employee with the police service north of Toronto.

Toronto police have opened a book of condolence to give the public a chance to pay their respects to Styles.

The book will be open to the public in the lobby of Toronto Police Service headquarters at 40 College St. until Tuesday at 7 p.m.

A large turnout is expected at Styles' police funeral, which is being held at the Ray Twinney Recreation Complex at 100 Eagle St. W. in Newmarket on Tuesday at 1 p.m.

A police procession will take place prior to the funeral at 10:30 a.m.

People who want to pay their respects to Const. Styles, his family and his colleagues are asked to line up to observe the procession along Yonge Street between Davis Drive and Eagle Street.

A visitation is taking place at Jerrett Funeral Homes at 8088 Yonge St. in Vaughan on Monday between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. and between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.

Both the visitation and the funeral are open to the public.

However, seating inside the recreation complex will not be available to the public during the funeral because thousands of police officers are expected to attend, police said.

First-degree murder

A 15-year-old boy believed to be driving the vehicle has been charged with first-degree murder.

Sources tell CTV News that the boy may be paralyzed as a result of the crash.

If convicted, the suspect faces a maximum sentence of 10 years under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.

Because of the law, a youth who is convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced under the YCJA would actually spend less than 10 years behind bars.

For a first-degree murder conviction, the YCJA calls for up to six years of "continuous custody," while the remainder of the 10-year sentence - at least four years - is served as "conditional supervision" in the community.

However, the Crown may seek an adult sentence.
