History In The Making
NASCAR superstar Tony Stewart drove his race car into another driver Saturday night … sending the man to the hospital where he was later pronounced dead.
Kevin Ward Jr. had gotten out of his car after an on-track accident involving Stewart during a sprint car race (dirt track) in Canandaigua, NY.
Witnesses say Ward appeared angry after the accident and was attempting to point at Stewart as he drove past on the following lap — but Tony ended up hitting him … sending Ward flying down the track.
Hours after the accident, police said they were investigating Ward’s death as an “on-track” incident, and not a criminal matter.
Stewart was supposed to race Sunday in the Sprint Cup race in Watkins Glen, NY. So far, he’s still planning to do so.

They Lived And Died As Heroes
2 New York Firefighters were killed early Christmas Eve Morning, and 2 more were injured, after attempting to battle a Residential Fire that was set as an apparent trap for first responders.
“It does appear that it was a trap that was set for first responders, but the cause or reasons we don’t have at this time,” said Webster Police Chief Gerald Pickering said describing the scene where shots were fired at West Webster firefighters when they arrived at 5:35 a.m to battle the blaze along Lake Road in Webster, which is about 10 miles west of Rochester.
The apparent gunman was found dead in an area outside the scene, but it’s unclear if he was killed with a self-inflicted gunshot or if it was from a weapon from a police officer who was chasing him.
Firefighters Mike Chiapperini, also a lieutenant and public information officer and Tomasz Kaczowka, he’s a West Webster firefighter and 911 dispatcher were killed in incident, Pickering said.
One can only wonder why this year is culminating to an end riddled with gun violence and shootings. People are losing their lives senselessly, and in this situation, those who lost their lives are men who dedicated their lives to the act of heroic service.
Our Prayers are with all affected by this situation

Chiapperini was described by Pickering as lifelong firefighter who started with the department’s explorer program and has about 20 years of experience. Kaczowka was a younger firefighter, he said.
West Webster firefighters Joseph Hofsetter and Theodore Scardino seriously injured and are at at Strong Memorial Hospital with gunshot wounds, a hospital spokeswoman said. She said at at noon press conference, that Scardino had had injuries to chest and lungs. Hofsetter was injured in pelvis.
Pickering said that one of the injured firefighters made his way across a bridge to get to safety. The other three had to be rescued by police who arrived on the scene.
“These are volunteers who get up in the middle of the night to fight fires, they don’t expect to be shot and killed,” a tearful Pickering said at the press conference.
No details were released on the gunman. Pickering said he was found dead at the scene with the apparent weapons used in the shootings.
The morning scene was described as chaotic as police and firefighters dealt with an immense blaze as well as gunshots, local news station WHAM-TV reports. The station also reports the firefighters who are involved are volunteer firefighters.
“I’m not aware of anything like this happening in Webster, obviously not a firefighter being fired upon,” Webster Fire Marshal Rob Boutillier told the Democrat & Chronicle. Pickering described Webster as resort lakeside community that is quiet and usually peaceful.
There at least four houses that have been damaged by the fire along Lake Road, WHAM-TV reported. Firefighters had to leave the scene and stop battling the blazes while police secured the scene. They are back to fighting the fires, the station reports. They continue to battle the blaze.
News of the deaths spread quickly through social media.

This is not the kind of thing you want shooting haphazard missiles.... named "Hellfire"
In what appeared to be the first case of U.S. troops being hit by “friendly fire” from a drone aircraft, two U.S. Soldiers were killed by a “Hellfire” missile after apparently being mistaken for insurgents moving to attack another group of Marines in southern Afghanistan.
A Predator drone fired the missile that killed a Marine and a Navy medic in Helmand province last week, according to two Pentagon officials.
With a story like this, you have to ask yourself and wonder why our U.S. Military is creating weapons with the name “Hellfire”
