Five years after their dad passed away, Tanner and Chase Brownlee lost an auction for their father’s squad car, but were given a huge surprise.
Deputy Sam Brownlee of the Weld County Sheriff's office in Colorado was killed in the line of duty after a police chase in 2010. He left behind a wife and two sons, Tanner and Chase.

"It would mean a lot to me and my brother, we've been through a lot," Tanner, 20, told a local ABC affiliate.
After starting a GoFundMe to raise money, Tanner was ready to start bidding.
"I think if it goes past the limit we have, I just have to hope that someone has it in their heart to win the car and give it to me and my brother," Tanner said about their financial limit for the auction. "We don't really have a backup plan."
