San Diego residents say Richard M. Fierro, who disarmed the gunman, is a hardworking individual who went to Mira Mesa High School and San Diego State University
Richard M. Fierro, who helped disarm the gunman inside a nightclub Saturday in Colorado Springs, grew up in San Diego and is known within the local Latino brewery community, according to residents who described him as hardworking and heroic.
Fierro said he was celebrating a birthday with family members when the suspect “came in shooting.” Fierro said during a lull in the shooting he ran at the suspect, who was wearing some type of armor plates, and pulled him down before severely beating him until police arrived. National City resident Joann Cornejo first heard about Fierro’s heroics when she received a call Sunday from her mother. She was “floored” to hear what he had done, but not because it was out of character. Springing into action, especially with his family present with him that night at the club, is very much his character, she said.
“Latino breweries are so far and few between that we just wanted to support each other and so we did a collaboration brew in 2020. We came up with a recipe together,” Favela said, adding that the Fierro family also collaborated with his wife’s brewery Mujeres Brew House.
