LA Kings help replace San Bernardino shooting survivor’s stolen Gretzky jersey (Video)
Natassa Torralbo survived last week’s mass shooting at the San Bernardino Inland Regional Center in California. Days later, her home was burglarized while attending a vigil for the victims with her daughter and sister.
Among the items taken included family heirlooms and her beloved Wayne Gretzky Los Angeles Kings jersey.
The Kings heard about Torralbo’s story and invited her as a guest to Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, which ended in LA’s favor 3-1. Before puck drop, she was visited by team mascot Bailey and given a special gift.
Yup. All the feels right there. Well done, Kings.
Police are still searching for the suspect, who was caught on camera via Torralbo’s neighbor’s surveillance footage breaking into the home in broad daylight.
