A veteran did the brave thing by taking a truck to drive victims of the Las Vegas shooting to the hospital. In the article, the author loosely uses the word “steal,” in reference to the truck, but in fact the defense of necessity would negate any charge of theft.
The veteran stated “he looked for victims with the most serious injuries first, loaded them into the truck bed and drove them to Desert Springs Hospital Medical Center. He made two trips before ambulances arrived on scene.”
Friends said of him: “‘You’re an outstanding example of what we should all strive to be in time of crisis,’” “There’s a lot of unsung heroes that day that stood up and helped people,” the veteran told the press.
