Tragedy in Oregon

An Oregon minister is dead after trying to protect his family from five teens who pretended to be cops. The armed teens showed up at his home in November, and the minister gave his life to keep his loved ones safe – including his 4-year-old grandson. It’s a shocking and senseless crime that’s left a community reeling.

What Happened

The teens, who claimed to be police officers, invaded the minister’s home in an overnight attack. It’s not clear what they were after, but it’s clear they had no qualms about using violence to get it. The minister’s bravery in the face of danger is a sad reminder of the risks people take to keep their families safe.
