A Miami first responder has been fired after he allegedly wrote disparaging messages about police and a recently slain detective, authorities said.
“How many idiots I had to transport with honor guard their dead bodies from coronavirus because they were all too stupid to wear masks or get vaccinated,” he wrote, according to news station. “All cops are for is protecting the rich property owners and the status quo. Everything else is a farce.”
Zahralban said his department stands with law enforcement and the police department and Echaverry's family as they mourn their loss. “What we do want to make clear is that our firefighters and our Fire Department fully support our police," he said in a prepared statement."As city of Miami firefighters, we work alongside hardworking police officers every day to keep our city safe and greatly respect their work and sacrifice. We stand in solidarity and in mourning with our brothers and sisters in blue.”
