The Brief
- Fifteen-year-old Andrew Collinson is planning a one-mile run to pay tribute to fallen South Fulton Capt. Helio Garcia, who died in a crash two months ago.
- Collinson says he’s hoping to see a big turnout from local law enforcement and public safety departments to support Capt. Garcia’s widow, who is also attending.
- Collinson joined Running 4 Heroes when he was 13 and has likely participated in over a hundred runs to raise money and awareness for the families of fallen heroes.
GAINESVILLE, Ga. – Probably the only thing 15-year-old Andrew Collinson loves more than running is his community’s first responders.
The Hall County teen could be spending his summer vacation relaxing like most people his age. Instead, he’s dedicated to making sure the families of those killed while protecting and serving our communities know that someone’s still thinking about them.
