ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. – A funeral was held today for Corey McBride, a St. Louis firefighter who was killed in a car crash on May 3.
The funeral took place this morning at Austin A. Layne Mortuary in Jennings, where fellow first responders participated in a uniformed walk-through before the service began.
McBride, who was off-duty, was driving a black Jeep Wrangler when it collided with a gray Chrysler 300 that was attempting a left turn. The impact caused the Jeep to flip, and the firefighter was pronounced dead at the scene.
The driver involved in the crash turned himself in to authorities.
