PITTSTON, LUZERNE COUNTY- All weekend long, people from across the area have been reaching out to the family of a fallen state trooper.

Trooper Joshua Miller was killed in the line of duty three weeks ago. Club Jam in Pittston held a concert to benefit the Miller family Saturday night.

There were also special items up for sale to help raise money. Trooper Miller's widow was on hand to thank the crowd.

Family members say they're touched by the community's support. JoshÕs cousin James said, "Oh it's great. We love the support and we are so happy for all the troopers and everybody who just came out and supported the family."

Another fundraiser to benefit Trooper Joshua Miller's family is scheduled for Thursday. It's at Jad's Place on Route 315 in Pittston Township.
