KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The aim of recommendations in a new report focusing on the recent deaths of two firefighters is to minimize future losses, Kansas City Fire Chief Paul Berardi said.
“It is unfortunate that events are the impetus for change, but it’s probably human nature,” Berardi told The Kansas City Star (http://j.mp/20K4Z5r ). “Why do we have seat belts? Because we killed so many people and they didn’t wear seat belts.”
