Beloved actor dies at 37 after being shot in Los Angeles In the early hours of Saturday morning, Wactor
was escorting his coworker to her car after their shift at a rooftop bar. As he approached his own vehicle,
he noticed three masked men nearby and initially thought it was being towed.
However, when one of the men pointed a gun at him, Wactor fearlessly
shielded his coworker from harm without a second thought.
Described by his brother Grant as a hardworking and compassionate
individual, Johnny Wactor’s untimely passing has left
a void in the hearts of many. Grant shared, “We’re Southern by birth and blood, and we would never let a woman
walk to their car by herself.” The memory of Wactor’s
heroic act will forever be remembered and cherished by those who knew him.
