ST. Louis FireFighter Shot and Killed Trying to help at a Car Wreck.

A ST. Louis Firefighter was shot and killed tonight . The Firefighter stopped to help what he thought was a car wreck. Little did he know it was a robbery suspect who just robbed a store and wrecked a car he stole. The robber then shot the ST. Louis Firefighter in the chest and stole his Fire Dept. Vehicle. The suspect then crashed and got into a shootout with police officers. The ST. Louis Firefighter was taken to a nearby Hospital where he later died of his injuries. The suspect was also killed by police. Let us take time to pray for his family and friends. Let him rest in peace.

My prayers go out to this family and to the dept who lost one of its own. This is why it is so hard to get anyone to stop and help when one is broke down on the side of the road and it is ashame that our country has gotten in this kind of shape because of the criminals.

As sad as the situation is, 2 wrongs don't make a right. Why lower yourself to the level of the scumbag who did this? You joined the fire department to save lives, not take them. Keep on the good side and never let anyone get the best of you. Stay safe. :)

My condolences to the family.
