Medals Stolen From Family Of Fallen Worcester Firefighter

WORCESTER (CBS) – The family of a fallen Worcester firefighter is outraged. Timothy Jackson died in the massive Cold Storage Warehouse fire in 1999. His family received commendations for his bravery, but a thief broke into their home and stole the medals the family cherished.

The past couple of days of been a struggle for Tim Jackson Jr. “It’s personal I don’t really know how to describe it,” Jackson told WBZ-TV.

It’s been almost 14 years since his dad and five other firefighters died in the now infamous blaze. When burglars hit Tim’s Swan Avenue home on Wednesday, the family felt the loss all over again.

“It’s just the gut feeling in the pit of your stomach of emptiness now,” said Christina Jackson, the firefighter’s granddaughter.
