"People have been lined up since six, five o'clock this morning to purchase t-shirts and support the fallen chief and his family," volunteer Shelby Fischbach said.

The group said they sold well over a thousand shirts at the event and ended up running out.

They said the interest is so strong they plan to print another batch soon.
