[quote:0d344]A 76-year-old professor and Holocaust survivor was hailed as a hero after his students recounted how he saved about 20 people in Monday's US school shooting before being gunned down himself.

Liviu Librescu, a senior researcher and lecturer at Virginia Tech University, blocked the classroom door when he heard shooting and continued to hold the gunman at bay while students escaped through a classroom window.[/quote:0d344]

Killed on Holocaust remembrance day. Talk about a tragic irony.

Rest in peace.
