CHICAGO (CBS) -- Sunday a community came together to show their support for a Chicago Police officer who is now paralyzed. 

Danny Golden was off duty in July when he was shot trying to break up a fight in a bar in Beverly. 

Sunday friends, family and community leaders held a benefit at the Irish American Heritage Center in Mayfair to raise funds for his future expenses. 

The event featured live music, dancers and a silent auction with signed memorabilia from several Chicago sports stars. 

Those who know Danny say they are not surprised to see all the support. 

His family has set up a GoFundMe page to help in his recovery.
