Signing on “To Protect and To Serve” is a blank check. This officer should receive the highest of honors for losing his life saving another, at only 22. I wish this old ex-cop’s tears could help.

Horrible.

Side note: again, the insidious slipping in “they/them” referring to a single person.

The person with the mental health crisis lived, but the rescuer died. What a horrible situation. That’s not how the story is supposed to end.

That is indeed tragic. However, the officer would have done better to just leave the “mental crisis” person to his fate and saved himself as the train approached.
