Hero in Kansas Honored
 
'Man Hurt Intervening in Kansas Bar Shooting Receives $100,000 from Indian Charity' NBC

"An Indian charity has donated $100,000 to a Kansas man wounded after confronting a man who allegedly killed an Indian man and injured another in a Kansas shooting being investigated as a hate crime.
Ian Grillot, 24, received the check over the weekend while attending a gala hosted by India House Houston, a community nonprofit in Texas. The group said in a statement that the money will be used to help Grillot buy a house.
"It is not every day that one meets a genuine hero — a person who risks his life for another, and takes a bullet for a complete stranger," India House Houston's annual gala chair Jiten Agarwal said in a statement. "Ian Grillot is a man who reminds us of the promise of America and its greatness.""

Good news in hard times for ethical decency.

I am truly glad to see a local Indian community honoring a real life hero. I will send a small contribution soon as a token of my appreciation.
And Bob, thanks for posting.
