After the tragic loss of one of their own, Cleveland firefighters were pushing through the pain Monday.
Gov. DeWine ordered flags to be lowered to half staff in honor of fallen firefighter Johnny Tetrick. The 27-year veteran was fatally hit by a car while responding to a rollover crash on I-90 Saturday night.
Luke started at the Division of Fire one year before Tetrick. Although they were only acquaintances, he said Tetrick’s had an upstanding reputation on and off duty. Tetrick spent almost his entire career with Engine 22. Saturday night, he responded with the unit to a rollover crash on Interstate 90 near Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. Witnesses reported a car drove through the scene, hit Tetrick and drove off.“It’s just tough losing someone, it’s just tough seeing the other firefighters in so much pain. It’s tough seeing Johnny’s daughters - you see the pain in their eyes and know Johnny will never be there for them again,” the chief said.
“When I did talk to them, I tried to communicate – Johnny will always be here with the people he touched, with the love he put in his daughters. I can see it in their eyes,” he said.
