Summary
A travel nurse in Burlington pulled a life-saving intervention when he saw a man violently attacking a woman—only for the suspect to pull a knife and threaten a fire captain. Drawing on disarming techniques learned years ago in a Mississippi youth program, the nurse flipped the attacker and secured the weapon until police arrived. He’s now mentoring others to prepare for such moments, reminding us that readiness can make all the difference. The suspect, Wayne Butchino, 29, was arrested and faces attempted murder charges.
