On his Facebook account, James Tullier wrote that his son, Nick Tullier, an East Baton Rouge Parish sheriff's deputy, still remains on life support. (CNN) The father of a Baton Rouge deputy who survived the deadly July 17th attack on police officers, posted an update and a touching story about his son. The woman told Tullier the same story his son's fiance had told him. "Instead of just passing her by and let her fend for herself, Nick pulled over to help," his father wrote. The ambush had come two weeks after a Baton Rouge police officer had shot and killed Alton Sterling, a black man, outside a convenience store in the city on July 5.
