The heroic Trump rally attendee who was tragically killed yesterday by bullets intended for Donald Trump has been identified as Corey Comperatore. He had just turned 50 days before the incident. Corey was the fire chief of Buffalo Township. He died heroically, shielding his daughter and wife from the attack.

Throughout his career, Comperatore ran into hundreds of blazing fires, saving of countless innocent lives, only to be struck down by a stray bullet meant for President Trump.

He leaves behind a wife and two loving daughters. His daughter Allyson, in a touching tribute, held the “5” from his 50th birthday balloon upside down and wrote a heartfelt message about her father on Facebook today.

“Yesterday time stopped. And when it started again my family and I started living a real-life nightmare. What was supposed to be an exciting day that we had all looked forward to (ESPECIALLY my dad), turned into the most traumatizing experiences someone could imagine…

The media will not tell you that he died a real-life super hero. They are not going to tell you how quickly he threw my mom and I to the ground. They are not going to tell you that he shielded my body from the bullet that came at us.

He loved his family. He truly loved us enough to take a real bullet for us. And I want nothing more than to cry on him and tell him thank you. I want nothing more than to wake up and for this to not be reality for me and my family.

We lost a selfless, loving, husband, father, brother, uncle, son, and friend. And I will never stop thinking about him and mourning over him until the day that I die too. July 13th will forever be a day the changed my life. I will never be the same person I was less than 24 hours ago.

There are a lot of children out there that say their dad is their hero, but my dad really is mine. I don’t think I would be here today without him.
Dad, I love you so much that there aren’t enough words to express how deep that love goes.

A GoFundMe has been set up to support his family: GoFundMe for Corey Comperatore’s Family. #CoreyComperatore
