2021 has not been as kind as we would have liked. On April 9th, we have lost another of our own due to a severe asthma attack, a man we knew as Umbratica.

He had a big heart and was there for people when they needed it. He meant more to us than he knew.

He would often be found helping support others who needed it via kind words and advice. He was there for many who were devastated they were taken advantage of by their former mentor - a very heavy subject - but he did not shy away from trying to help them if he could. He would offer fitness advice and tried to help build up people in the RLSH community in both skills and spirit.

He also worked hard on trying to help bring awareness to and clean up the environmental issue of litter in Jamaica.

Rest in Power, Umbratica. You fought until the very end. We will also fight to be our best and do our best. You will not be forgotten.

If you wish you help his family, they have created a GoFundMe here: https://gofund.me/fbbf8b4b 

RIP, Dale Pople aka Superhero.

On Saturday July 18 we lost our brother, our mentor, our Superhero to suicide.

Please join us for this special episode. We'll talk about ways to cope with depression, how we can help others, and we'll share stories about Dale.

Tuesday, July 21st 7pm PT/10pm ET

Thank you so much to everyone for joining us in honoring and sharing stories about Old Superhero tonight. It's no surprise that our boards were so full, the list went off the screen with people wanting to chat.

In no particular order, thanks to callers Steven Fontaine/"Dusk", Brennan Cox, Vector, Zeta Zimmer, SkyMan, RazorHawk, Zero, Good Samaritan, Knight Owl, The DarkShadow, Tamerlane, Discordia, and Spectral Hawk. We also had Patrioteer, Wolf Paradox, Masa Cloud and a few others hanging in the chat room for some time, despite our ongoing audio issues.

 

Thank you again, everybody, and take care.

ECHO Patrol Report: 6/19-20/2020

Patrol Time: 23:30 - 04:00

Location: Capitol Hill, Seattle / CHOP

Roll Call: Red Ranger, Justin Service

 

We began patrol around the area again shortly before midnight. There were lots of fireworks going off into the air around the CHOP. We approached 10th & Pine and noticed street medics struggling with a man who had sat down in one of their wheelchairs and refused to get up. The man was mentally ill and shouting that he was God, and did not have socks or shoes on his feet. With everyone else at a loss, Red Ranger obtained a pair of socks from the street medic station and knelt down to speak to the man. After listening to him, Red Ranger de-escalated, gave him the socks, and the man was agreeable enough to get up from the wheelchair and leave of his own accord. The medics thanked us for our help and we continued our patrol.

 

At 02:20, we heard several gunshots ring out from the west. We ran as fast as we could towards the gunfire while telling others to get to cover. We arrived at 10th & Pine to find medics attempting to treat two victims who had been shot. We did our best to assist the medics on scene and keep the area clear so they could try to save the victims. Several people swarmed the area, and medics did their best to help the victims. We assisted with clearing a path to get victims to the medic vehicles, which were also swarmed by people. We moved to get people back off of the vehicle so that the medics could evacuate the victim they had on board to the hospital. They evacuated and we continued our patrol in the area to ensure the safety of everyone there in the midst of the chaos.

 

As of this posting, one young man was killed and the other is in critical condition. The killer/killers have yet to be identified or apprehended. If you have any information on the identity of whoever committed this awful crime, please come forward.

 

Stay safe, everyone.
