An emotional day in Prince George’s county, as a man who shot two firefighters, killing one, faces a judge for sentencing on gun charges. The welfare check turned shooting devastated the department, and one year later, they are still feeling the impact.
Darrell Lumpkin’s four-year sentence was handed down just on Friday evening, and so many firefighters showed up at the courthouse to support Lumpkin’s victims, the proceedings had to be moved to a bigger courtroom.
No comment from Darrell Lumpkin leaving the Prince George’s County Courthouse, after learning he’ll spend at least four years behind bars for gun charges.
“This case from the day that it occurred, was a case that was full of misery. It was one that affected this entire community,” says Prince George’s County state’s attorney Angela Alsobrooks.
