PHILADELPHIA – The Eddington House, known to locals as The E-House, filled with customers for a special dine-and-donate event supporting the family of Philadelphia police officer Shane Seiber, who was killed early Saturday morning.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n Seiber’s partner, a 33-year-old officer, was shot 12 times and remains hospitalized in stable condition.\u00a0<\/p>\n Community response quickly follows officer’s death <\/p>\n What we know:<\/p>\n Community members say they moved into action after learning that Seiber lived in Bensalem and that his children attended local schools.\u00a0<\/p>\n “We saw the news and then we realized that he was a local Bensalem resident and his children attend our schools so Sunday when we got that information the wheels went into motion,” said Rita Marlow, fundraising coordinator at The Eddington House.<\/p>\n Officer Shane Seiber (Philadelphia Police Department) <\/p>\n The E-House dedicated 20 percent of sales, along with direct donation collections, to Seiber’s family.\u00a0<\/p>\n “20% of the sales will go directly back to the family and we also have some donation collections here,” said Marlow.<\/p>\n What they’re saying:<\/p>\n Attendance at the event was high, with a strong presence from both school families and local police.\u00a0<\/p>\n “We\u2019ve had a very large turnout. One of the children go to a neighborhood school so a lot of the school family is here, a lot of the Bensalem Police have come by, I do believe there is some Philadelphia Police that are here,” said Laura Eder, front of the house manager at The E-House.<\/p>\n Eder added, “Every single day, they get up, they put the uniform on, they go to work, not knowing what the ending is going to be.”<\/p>\n Michael Lorenzo, president of the Parent Teacher Organization for Struble Elementary, said his son is a classmate of Seiber’s son.\u00a0<\/p>\n “My son and her son went to pre-school together so we had field trips with them for that and knowing them for several years. I didn\u2019t get to know Shane as well, he was constantly at work,” said Lorenzo.<\/p>\n Lorenzo described Seiber’s family as loving and happy.<\/p>\n What’s next:<\/p>\n The E-House is planning another dine-and-donate event Sunday. This event will support Seiber’s family as well as the officer who remains hospitalized after being shot 12 times. His name has not been released.<\/p>\n What we don’t know:<\/p>\n The name of the officer who remains in the hospital has not been released.<\/p>\n What you can do:<\/p>\n A GoFundMe<\/a> has been started to help support Officer Seiber’s family.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Source: This article contains information from interviews conducted at The Eddington House and community members in Bensalem, as well information from the Philadelphia Police Department and previous FOX 29 reporting.\u00a0<\/p>\n Philadelphia<\/a>Philadelphia Police Department<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PHILADELPHIA – The Eddington House, known to locals as The E-House, filled with customers for a special dine-and-donate…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":305487,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[191,193,192,194,139,594,539,69,595,593],"class_list":["post-305486","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-bensalem","tag-bensalem","tag-bensalem-headlines","tag-bensalem-news","tag-bensalem-township","tag-news","tag-organization","tag-pa","tag-philadelphia","tag-philadelphia-police-department","tag-us"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/305486","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=305486"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/305486\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/305487"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=305486"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=305486"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=305486"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/officer-seiber-fundraiser-1.jpg\")
