Vancouver Fire and Rescue Chief says that someone broke into his vehicle and took his uniform and medals Thursday.
The first responder Tweeted an image of himself with his grandmother, as well as a close up of the medals. He remarked that his dress uniforms and medals were, "among the things stolen."
Reid added that it's, "Just stuff and I’m not about medals - but one is special-my Grandma was with me when I got it."
The Fire Chief asks the public to keep an eye out for his sentimental belongings, and also thanks the Vancouver Police for their great work and support.
Vancouverties have been stepping outside each night to cheer for health care workers and first responders from their balconies, backyards, and doorsteps. However, the applause sounded a bit different in one neighbourhood last night.
Fire Chief Darrell Reid shared a video on March 29 to his Twitter account of his neighbours adding a unique twist to the 7 p.m. ritual: the Canadian national anthem.
Reid filmed the video from the balcony of his Mount Pleasant condo, as a chorus of people in the area proudly sang "Oh Canada."
