Ironworkers Unite: Aid Tony Holmes' Recovery

IW local 7 ironworker here who’s foreman experienced traumatic injury, through a carjacking experience. Tony Holmes truck was hijacked in Lawrence at a job. He arrived early morning got out of his truck and went to tailgate to remove supplies and someone hopped in his truck as it was running and tried to to take off, and the boss Tony Holmes tried to recover his truck and tried to stop the perp and was dragged down the road at speeds of excess of 60mph, and fought to save his property and company property and was visiously thrown from the vehicle and sustained major injuries, including broken pelvis, collapsed lung, broken shoulder, broken ribs, fractured skull, brain bleeds, and more, 63 year old tried to fight for his property due to a female released from Lawrence custody for stealing a Amazon truck a week prior who should have never been back on the streets. I’m asking all brother and sister ironworkers to come together and help with his recovery and this burden he and family face in this time of need any donation. Small or large will help for treatment and recovery ovee the next few months to years for him and his family. Please consider donating anything you can. Thank you.
