Lt. William Rymill, of the Somerville Police, told The Huffington Post Collier had ‘a heart of gold.’
‘He is going to be greatly, sorely missed,’ Rymill said. ‘He was an all-around great person.’
In two months he likely would’ve fulfilled his lifelong dream. He recently received high marks on a civil service exam and was a likely candidate to join the Somerville police department this summer, the Boston Globe reported.
‘Anybody could relate to him. Sean could talk to anybody,’ said Somerville police Lt. William Rymill. ‘The girls here in dispatch haven't stopped crying.’
His roommate, who declined to give his name to reporters, trained with Collier at the academy and described his fallen friend as too brave.
‘He was the guy who went to help,’ Collier’s roommate said. ‘The best guy got shot down by the biggest scumbags.’
Collier was further described as a warm man with a love of camping and country music.
On Twitter, people who claimed to have known Collier mourned him as a hero.
‘I knew him,’ wrote Bruce Mendelsohn, founder of The Hired Pen. ‘He was always kind, friendly, and helpful. Another senseless tragedy.’
‘This kid’s dream was to be a police officer,’ wrote Eric V. Alexander. ‘That’s all he talked about the whole ride up. He died doing what he loved. RIP Sean Collier.’

MIT said on its website right after the shooting that police were sweeping the campus in Cambridge and urged people to remain indoors until further notice.
People were urged to stay away from the Stata Building, a mixed use building with faculty offices, classrooms and a common area.
Hours later, MIT said the campus was clear.
Suspects Tamerlan Tsarnaey and younger brother Dzhokhar then stole a Mercedes-Benz with the driver inside and fled the scene.

They critically wounded another officer during a shootout in Watertown.
Richard Donohue, 33, a three-year-veteran of the department, was last reported to be in surgery at Mount Auburn Hospital in Cambridge.
Tamerlan was critically injured in the gunfire exchange and died at Beth Israel Hospital.
Donohue graduated from the Virginia Military Institute in 2002, the Roanoke Times reported.
Real estate agent Jake Copty, who had been a cadet with Donohue, described him as a ‘super nice guy’ with a good sense of humor.
‘We had a lot of fun,’ he said. ‘The only rule we didn’t break was the honor code.’
Donohue also served in the Navy.
‘It’s a terrible thing,’ Copty said. ‘We’re hoping that he recovers.’
Copty said that he understood Donohue had left surgery but no officials statements have been made regarding his condition.

Friday morning the school announced it was cancelling the day’s classes and urging employees to stay off campus.
The shooting came little more than three days after the twin bombings on the Boston Marathon that killed three people, wounded more than 180 others and led to an increase in security across the city.
About 11,000 people attend the prestigious university.

If I had a dollar for every time I met someone who did not have a cell phone and/or a Facebook account, I would have a grand total of zero dollars. Living in the United States obviously plays a large role in this. This "era of the internet," so to speak, has been used in many innovations and discoveries. Unfortunately, not all those uses have been for the good of humanity.
A prime example of this is the Steubenville rape case I wrote about a few weeks ago. In that case, the two teens that took advantage of an unconscious girl posted and distributed photos and video of the incident. It was to their own detriment, as the images were used as evidence in court, but it was also to the detriment of their victim.
The world of hurt a rape victim feels is undeniably worse when your attackers post video and pictures online, adding on to the misery.
I point to the tragedy in Boston on Monday as another example of the power technology and media hold. After the event, speculation ran rampant and photos and video began pouring in. One twitter account with the handle @Hope4Boston tweeted that two eight-year-olds had been killed in the bombing, which is not true. Another twitter account, @_BostonMarathon, posed as the organizers of the race and posted: "For every retweet we receive we will donate to #BostonMarathon victims." That post was retweeted over 50,000 times by Monday evening, though Twitter has since disabled the account.
"Sometimes accidentally and sometimes maliciously, false information gets loose," said Doug Gross in an article he penned for CNN. "And in the rapid-fire digital echo chamber, it does not take long to spread."
Gross definitely understands the situation, since conflicting reports abounded in the time immediately after the bombing, and many are still circulating.
In spite of the Internet's propensity for speculation and misinformation, the aftermath of the Boston marathon on Monday showed it is also a force for good. Comedian and actor Patton Oswalt wrote a Facebook post, which subsequently went viral. The post served to remind us of the good in the world, even when facing a tragedy like the one in Boston.
He concluded the post by saying, "So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, 'The good outnumber you, and we always will.' "
Additional reports of heroes and positivity appeared elsewhere on the Internet as well. NBC Sports Network tweeted that there were reports of marathon runners who crossed the finish line and continued to run to Massachusetts General Hospital to donate blood. Many, and quite possibly most, of the photos and videos of the event showed at least one volunteer or first responder working to help those hurt by the blasts. Bostonians unaffected by the bombing took to the Internet to express messages of support and to offer their own homes to people who needed places to stay. Boston was hurt badly on Monday, and the nation managed to generate an incredible response thanks partly to social media.
The extent of social media's influence is out of this world, quite literally. On Monday evening, after hearing of the bombing, Canadian astronaut and I.S.S. commander Chris Hadfield tweeted condolences, followed by a picture of Boston's lights shining in the night with the caption "A somber night in Boston." Thanks to our technology, even those in space are able to join the world and voice their condolences.
Those who seek to inspire terror in innocent Americans cannot control our reactions. Who is to blame is not nearly as important as acknowledging the heroics and gallantry of people when the chips are down. Whether it is an earthquake in Iran, or Haiti, or a bombing in Boston, people always find a way to be at their best when faced with those trying to do their worst, and social media is instrumental in showing this.
