BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — Friday night several organizations are teaming up to honor the life of fallen Kern County Sheriff's Deputy Phillip Campas.

It starts tonight at 6 p.m. at Chuy's Restaurant on Rosedale Highway where the Bakersfield Freedom Riders motorcycle club will meet and then head out at 7:15 p.m. for a memorial parade in Campas's honor. His nephew is a member of the club.
