Members of the Lake City community are finding ways to give back to an injured police officer and his family.

A burger fundraiser Thursday night was one of several events benefiting Shawn Schneider, the Lake City officer critically injured in a shooting last week.

Organizers of Thursday's event were expecting to serve at least 500 burgers at $5 each. All of the money will go to Schneider's family, which includes the officer's wife and three children.

Shortly after the fundraiser, organizers had counted at least $6,300, far exceeding their goal.

Other people are finding different ways to help. A local salon is giving $10 haircuts next Monday, with all of the money benefiting Schneider's family.
