Middletown Flags Lowered to Honor Fallen Fire Chief Corey Comperatore
Middletown, NJ – Middletown Mayor Tony Perry has ordered flags across the township to be lowered in honor of Buffalo Township Fire Chief Corey Comperatore, who was tragically killed over the weekend while attending President Trump’s campaign rally.
Chief Comperatore, upon hearing shots being fired, immediately protected his family, saving his wife and daughters. Middletown, home to the world’s largest all-volunteer Fire Department, mourns this fallen hero and honors his bravery and devotion to his family during his final moments.
Mayor Perry stated that the township stands united in grief and respects the ultimate sacrifice made by Chief Comperatore.
On Sunday, Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin ordered flags flown at half staff in his state. No such declaration has been made in New Jersey by Governor Phil Murphy or Acting Governor Tahesha Way.
