This is the worst kind of tragedy in our industry, and my sincerest condolences go out to the family and brotherhood of St Louis FD who must be trying to find some meaning in this time of loss.
Devil's advocate time. We as EMT's are taught to assess the safety of a scene, let's all ask how we could assess a scene and spot the factors that could leave us in a similar situation. Perhaps everything was done right, we don't know, nor are we likely to. But we should all look out to see what critical factor could prevent this from happening to us.

Our thoughts are with him and his family.....also his fire service family
The coat and boots are empty,
The helmet hangs on the wall,
The siren is loudly screaming
But they"ll not answer the call.
Though many a time they responded,
And protected their wearer from harm,
They no longer will now be needed
For he has answered his last alarm.
They remain as a silent tribute,
To a fireman's life now a memory,
To his untiring effort to help others
To his devotion to saving both life and property.
The Supreme Chief has ordered the fireman,
To take a detail for everyone,
To an assignment of peace and beauty
Far across to etenity's shore.
Yes, the coat and boots are empty,
The helmet hangs on the wall,
The siren is loudly screaming
But they'll no longer answer the call.

Sorry for your loss Brother. Once again tragedy strikes the Bravest of St. Louis. Firefighter Riggins, and his family, will be in our thoughts and prayers, as will the rest of his firefighting family in St. Louis.
Be safe out there.
