First responders in Plano raised money and offered support for a woman who lost her husband and"It just hit me different. Every tragedy that we go to is never easy. We don’t like to see anybody to have their life fall apart. Nobody calls 911 because they’re having a good day," Plano PD Sgt. David Thornsby said.
"We were made aware that Mr. Hurlbut hadn’t made it out, that there was still a dog inside as well. With the way the fire was, [the fire department] was trying to do the best they could to try and get in there," Thornsby.Still dealing with the tragedy, she declined to speak on Saturday.When Thornsby went home, he got the idea to go beyond his duties as an officer.
Thornsby, the patrol supervisor that night, coordinated with other officers and Plano Fire-Rescue personnel to raise money for the fire victim."My wife has a heart of gold. I came home and told her what happened, it affected her too," Thornsby recalled. "Right off the bat, I told her what I was thinking. She, right off the bat, started ordering a whole bunch of stuff for the dog.
