Ramirez walked from the Murrieta Police Department to the Lake Elsinore Sheriff's Station while carrying the U.S. flag.
When Ramirez arrived at the Lake Elsinore Sheriff's Station, he met with some of Calhoun's coworkers over pizza before saluting a memorial for the fallen deputy.
The Riverside County Sheriff's Office said they were grateful for Ramirez's tribute.
The suspect accused of shooting and killing Calhoun, Jesse Navarro, 43, has been charged with first-degree murder, a count of attempted murder, related firearm enhancements, and the special circumstance allegations of murder of a peace officer and discharge from a motor vehicle.

Navarro could face the death penalty if he is found guilty of the special circumstance charge, but the district attorney has not made a decision whether to pursue it yet. Additionally, Gov. Gavin Newsom ordered a moratorium on the death penalty in 2019.
