Parents were surprised when Texas State Troopers appeared at a children’s baseball game, but their confusion turned to understanding upon seeing a sign that read “Pray for Tovar.” The troopers came to support a young boy whose father, Trooper Juan Rojas Tovar, was recovering in the hospital after being shot multiple times while responding to a mass shooting.
Despite his injuries, including the loss of an eye, Tovar expressed gratitude for the community’s support and was thrilled to see his son at the game. His fellow troopers showed up to cheer on the boy, ensuring he felt loved during this difficult time. Tovar has been hailed as a hero for his bravery in the line of duty.
