PITTSBURGH -- Jewish doctors and nurses at Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh put their personal feelings aside to help save the life of the man who allegedly claimed he wanted to “kill all the Jews” as he opened fire at a synagogue and murdered 11 worshipers. In addition to killing eight men and three women, he wounded six other people, including four police officers, before surrendering Saturday. “The first three people who took care of him were Jewish.”Another nurse, whose father is a rabbi, “came in from a mass casualty drill and took care of this gentleman.”Cohen was one of the first people on the scene. Just like the first responders who rushed into danger, Cohen credits his doctors, nurses and staff for stepping up. He faces 11 counts of criminal homicide, six counts of aggravated assault and 13 counts of ethnic intimidation in addition to federal counts that include weapons offenses and hate crime charges.
