Diller was fatally shot on Monday during a traffic stop in Queens after a man with 21 prior arrests allegedly shot him in the stomach as Diller was trying to get the suspect, Guy Rivera, 34, to exit the vehicle. 

Rivera opened fire on Diller and his partner at about 5:45 p.m. Monday. The officers had approached the vehicle because it had been illegally parked at a bus stop.

Another man who was in the vehicle at the time of Diller's death, Lindy Jones, was also charged following the death, including for criminal possession of a weapon and defacing a weapon.

The Mets tribute fell on the second day of funeral services in Long Island for Diller, a married father of one who had served three years with the department before his untimely death.
