The wife of former WWE star Shad Gaspard remembers him as a 'real-life superhero' in her first public comments since his body was found at Venice Beach.
The Los Angeles Fire Department's lifeguard chief, Ken Haskett, told NBC News that the lifeguard tried to pull Gaspard and his son to safety.
Gaspard pushed his son to the lifeguard, before"he got pushed back down under a wave, and that's the last he's been seen," Haskett said. The wrestler, 39, was found dead early Wednesday morning by a person at the beach. An investigator with the coroner’s office confirmed the body was Gaspard's, according to police."The outpouring of love from Shad’s friends, colleagues and fans has meant more to us than you can even imagine," she wrote on Instagram."We’d like to once again thank the lifeguards, coast guard, divers, fire and police departments for their efforts.
