In a disturbing sign of our nation’s growing disorder and disregard for public safety, a 35,000-pound fire engine was brazenly stolen late Friday night in Everett, Washington, while heroic first responders were inside a building attending to a medical emergency. As firefighters rushed to save lives, a criminal seized the opportunity for chaos, commandeering the massive fire truck and leaving a path of destruction across the city—smashing into at least 16 parked cars, damaging public property, and ultimately abandoning the emergency vehicle in a recklessly damaged state. No injuries were reported, but the theft forced the removal of crucial life-saving equipment from active service, striking at the very heart of community trust and emergency readiness. Police are now scrambling to locate the suspect behind this anarchic rampage, asking the public to aid in the hunt for justice. In these troubling times of lawlessness, this shocking act should galvanize every Catholic and patriotic American to pray, remain vigilant, and demand the restoration of moral order in our streets and accountability for those who threaten it.
