Wonderful gesture in donations for wounded officers families.
Nothing I have read so far has even hinted in some sort of collection for the injured civilian.
He is just as much a human being as the two police officers.
Some news reports don't even mention this guys' name. How strange.
No fund was established to help Devan Jackson, the injured civilian. But a few people did send him some donations and he appreciated that. He also got himself a new job...
