U.S. figure skating star Nancy Kerrigan has shared her grief over the death of police officer Garrett Swasey, who was killed during Friday’s shooting rampage at a Planned Parenthood facility in Colorado.
Before becoming an officer for the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs, Swasey was an accomplished figure skater and was close friends with Kerrigan growing up in Stoneham, Massachusetts.
“I called him ‘Ugh’, he called me ‘Yuck,’ We were always teasing each other like a brother and sister,” she told the Boston Herald.
Swasey, 44, was among the three victims left dead when suspect Robert Lewis Dear opened fire on the Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs.
