Chestertown Vol Fire Co. gives it's regards to the family of Firefighter
Swan.

What is the status of the shooter?
My opinion is the shooter should be first in line for the death penalty.


When the nations police and firefighters are under attack by the very
people they swear to protect & serve, it threatens all of us.

With great sadness I have read about this tragic incident, when someone
in all the best intentions to help is killed by one of the people he
wanted to give his service to.

So please relay my deep felt condolences to the family of John Swan and
his fellow FF's. Words can not describe what I am feeling.
