When the shooting started, before he realized he was hit, all Jerecho Loveall could do was dive for the floor. Barrett Hudson, with seven bullet holes in his back, fled through the exit doors – then called his father, ready to die.
And when Richard Fierro saw the muzzle flashes and smelled the gunpowder, his training kicked in. After tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, he knew what to do. "I just know I got into mode and I needed to save my family," Fierro told reporters, a day after a deadly nightclub shooting stunned a nation already strained by tensions and threats toward the LGBTQ community. "And at that time, my family was everybody in that room."
Police say one gunman with a rifle started shooting inside Club Q, shortly before midnight Saturday night. Five people were killed and 17 were wounded.
