Nottinghamshire Police officer hit by train while helping man dies www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-66619728

So sad . My thoughts go out to his family and colleagues.

Heartbreaking.

Absolutely tragic.

This is a stark reminder of what the emergency services do when called upon. It's very easy to criticise the police, but on an individual level there are so many brave and dedicated officers.

Oh no ! 😞

Completely agree.

.

Agreed.

Absolutely devastating news 💙

Heartbreaking.

Well said

@Asterales
Thank you xx

Such awful news. Thinking too of his colleagues who witnessed the tragedy & tried to help. Hope they get the help thet need in the coming weeks/months

I find it sad this doesn't get much of a reaction.
Unlike other threads.

This man had a family , and gave his life to try and save someone else's (which he did )

💙 so tragic.

💐

Terrible news. RIP

Gosh I wonder how the man he was saving deals with the guilt of this

Very sad 💔

Was just reading it on BBC. What a brave man, may he rest in peace.

My condolences to his friends and family, absolutely tragic circumstances.

That's awful and so so sad.

No one should go to work and not come home. My thoughts are with his family and his colleagues, especially the ones who were at the scene.

So sad to see this today, how awful for his family x

Jesus, that's terrible, for the train driver too. The policemans family must be devastated. What was his name?
