Officials with the Dallas Fire-Rescue Department are investigating a 12-year veteran driver after he said online he would hesitate before helping black people.
“We can’t have one bad post affect what we do for a million people every day,” department spokesperson Joel Lavender told WFAA-TV.
The investigation against driver-engineer Chad Tyson stems from a Facebook thread on a contact’s personal page on Sunday, after Tyson posted a story regarding a stabbing attack against two San Diego firefighters, Ben Vernon and Alex Wallbrett, last month. The story indicated that 34-year-old Ryan Allen Jones would stand trial in connection with the incident.
