Colleagues watched in absolute horror. Wards producer witnessing his death live from the control room. But they stayed on the air covering their own tragedy and earlier today the precise time of yesterday mornings shootings, the stations staff stopped the news, something that you rarely see, and took a moment to join their community, share their grief in a moment of silence.

About the third party run i h
