Thoughts and prayers
Hearts break for all 3 officers, their families and the entire Bristol PD. RIP
Sgt. DeMonte and Officer Hamzy's ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten and my sincerest condolences go out to their families, friends and co-workers. To Officer Iurtao, you are the true embodiment of a hero. Under unimaginable circumstances you got the job done and most likely saved the lives of many more people that the suspect would have no doubt killed. This could have turned into a mass shooting in the matter of minutes and you prevented that - to say thank you somehow doesn't seem quite adequate, but your actions were truly amazing, so thank you for being you. I wish you a speedy recovery.
