Santiago and Torres in the midst of their own grief reminded the public “… how short life really is” And to “take a minute to take a photo, answer that call/text or just a simple hug to tell them you love them because you never know when it will be your last.”
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact Sgt C.J. Winik or officer Pat Kitchenman at 267-812-3053.
