WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Russ Fulcher from Idaho took a moment on the House floor to honor the firefighters who were tragically killed and injured in an ambush attack in North Idaho.

Fulcher addressed the incident, saying, “This evil act against our firefighters does not represent the Idaho way. I ask all Idahoans and Americans to pray for a full recovery for Mr. Tysdal and for comfort for all families involved. These men represent the very best of Idaho. Their courage, heroism, and dedication will never be forgotten.”

The attack, which occurred on June 29, claimed the lives of Kootenai County Fire and Rescue Battalion Chief Frank Harwood and Coeur d’Alene Fire Department Battalion Chief John Morrison. Coeur d’Alene Fire Department Engineer Dave Tysdal was severely injured.

Recently, Tysdal was transferred to a facility in Colorado for specialized care. This move aims to provide him with the necessary treatment for his recovery.
