HARRISBURG, Aug. 7 – State Rep. Josh Siegel released the following statement regarding the two state Troopers shot today:
“Violence like this toward our public servants let alone anyone living in this commonwealth, our nation, or anywhere else is unacceptable. Our public servants like state and local Troopers, fire and EMS personnel are the backbone of our communities and our state and work every day to help ensure that the areas we inhabit are safe, giving us one less thing to worry about.
“These two Troopers were responding to a call as part of their job when they were shot and were then taken to local hospitals. It’s a tragic situation, and when those sworn to protect us are targeted in the line of duty, it shakes the foundation of our communities.
“Not only is this shooting a tragedy – it’s a brutal reminder of the dangers our officers face every day, and the deep cost of violence in our society.”
