Hero Crossing Guard Struck and Killed While Saving Two Grade School Kids in Kansas (VIDEO)
An 88-year-old crossing guard was struck and killed by a car but he’s being hailed as a hero because he saved the lives of two elementary school boys.
The incident occurred on Tuesday morning near Christ the King Elementary School in Kansas City, Kansas.
“He saved two of our students today,” said principal Cathy Fithian. “I’m confident they would not be here if (he) had not stepped in and we are thankful, we feel very blessed to have had him in our lives for five years. We just pray for his family at this time.” . . .
The school later identified the crossing guard as Bob Nill. A neighbor to the school said he was well liked by the children, and that it was a shock that he died.
