Firefighter killed at Trump rally honored with bagpipes, gun salute and a bugle sounding taps

Hundreds of people gathered at a Pennsylvania church to honor a former fire chief who was shot and killed at a rally for former President Donald Trump. After Corey Compatore’s funeral on Friday, mourners fell silent as his former colleagues loaded his flag-draped casket onto a fire truck draped in black bunting. Three firefighters stood sentry on the back of the truck, trailed by a parade of other firetrucks. Officials have said that Comperatore spent his final moments shielding his wife and daughter from gunfire at Trump’s rally last Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump didn't attend the funeral because of Secret Service concerns.
