FDNY Lieutenant Killed During Staten Island Blaze
Nov 23, 2008 11:34 pm US/Eastern
STATEN ISLAND (AP) ― An experienced firefighter stretching a hose to a home's burning attic was killed Sunday when a ceiling collapsed, throwing him to the ground and knocking off his helmet and oxygen mask.
The firefighter, Lt. Robert J. Ryan Jr., was unconscious when colleagues found him and pulled him from the two-story home in Staten Island. He was pronounced dead a while later at a hospital.
It was unclear whether Ryan, 46, was in the attic or was below it when the ceiling fell, firefighters said.
One resident in the home at the time escaped unhurt, the fire department said.
The electrical fire, in the New Brighton neighborhood, was reported about 12:30 a.m. and was brought under control an hour later.
Ryan's engine company was the first to arrive to tackle the flames, which appeared to have been caused by faulty wiring, firefighters said.
Ryan, a 17-year veteran of the fire department, was promoted to lieutenant in March 2001. After Sept. 11, 2001, he was assigned to an engine company that had lost all its members in the World Trade Center attack, which killed 343 firefighters.
He was burned in a fire a few years ago and spent more than a year recuperating before returning to work.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg, in a somber hospital news conference Sunday morning, asked city residents to pray for Ryan, who was married with two children and two stepchildren.
"He was a brave man who lost his life protecting the city," Bloomberg said.
Funeral arrangements were pending.
2006年にも同じ都市でISIの犯行とみられるテロ事件が発生しているのよ....実はISIを創設したのは、CIAなんだけどその背後には中南米ドラッグコネクション、マネーロンダリング、暗殺部隊訓練所...まさに人生イロイロね。オバマの動向に注目
Mumbai Attacks To Be Linked To Obama Target Pakistan?
Coordinated attacks across Mumbai,
India’s financial capital, which have killed up to
a hundred people and injured hundreds more,
are likely to be blamed on a terrorist organization
linked to the Pakistani ISI, providing further justification
for controversial U.S.
bombings inside Pakistani territory
and heightened rhetoric against Pakistan on behalf
of President elect Barack Obama.
As Bloomberg reports today,
“The government has previously blamed terrorist attacks
on organizations linked to foreign powers,
without offering evidence or making arrests.
Local media often blame the attacks on groups
backed by Pakistan or Bangladesh,
without identifying the security officials
who provided the information.
