It's a somber day in Toronto, Ontario as the city's police service loses a fellow officer in the line of duty.
Briefly, newly appointed Sgt. Russell, was attempting to apprehend a fellon, who was in possission of a stolen vehicle/plough, when he was run down. He was rushed to the trama unit at a downtown hospital, however, succumed to his injuries, moments later. The suspect was shot by police and rushed to the same hospital, and underwent emergency surgery.
I did not know him personally, however, every member of the service (uniform & civilian) is mourning his death. He was 35yrs old, leaves behind a wife and 2yr old son.
I know we have some fellow officers on this site, so I ask you, and everyone, as my extended family, to find it in your heart to say a prayer for him, and his family (home & beyond).
GOD BLESS!
Here is a link to a reliable local news station in Toronto with the story, and I know this is getting out around the world.
