CHESTER COUNTY, S.C. — Two firefighters — a father and son — were killed in a vehicle crash Saturday.
Firefighters Chris Gragg, 53, and his son, Cody Gragg, 23, were on their way to a motocross race when their vehicle blew a tire, veered off the road and caught fire in an embankment.
“They’re like brothers to us,” Collettsville Fire Chief Larry Price told WSOC-TV. “We’re devastated.”
Chief Price said the Graggs were close partners at the department and went to races often. “When they were here at the fire department, Cody was with his dad on calls. You’d see them riding around together, show up together.”
