INDIANAPOLIS — Former Virginia cornerback Maurice Canady wore Under Armour cleats with the name of slain Prince William County police officer Ashley Guindon written on them while he ran the 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine on Monday morning.

Guindon died of a fatal gunshot wound during a domestic violence call on her first shift as a police officer on Saturday.

One of the cleats will be given to her family and the other will be put up for auction – details are to be determind – with proceeds going to Officer Guindon’s memorial fund. Under Armour will also be making a donation.

Canady’s cousin, Alexus is a police officer in Prince George’s County (Md.) and his aunt, Pam Lewis, was killed in 2002.
