Sorrow Upon Sorrow

UPDATE ON THE DEATH OF TROOPER BRINKERHOFF

We just learned today, 27 APR 07, that Trooper Brinkerhoff was killed by friendly fire. He was shot by another trooper during a gun fight inside the farmhouse.

The suspect, Travis Trim, did fire upon him, but the bullet was stopped by Brinkerhoff's vest.

I cannot fathom how awful this is for our brothers and sisters in the NYSP. Our prayers go out to all families.

It is a dangerous job, there just isn't any other way to describe it.
