The Texas Republican elector who gained notoriety after pledging not to vote for Donald Trump falsely claimed he was a 9/11 first responder, it was reported Friday.

WFAA, the ABC affiliate in Dallas, said it turned up evidence to rebut Chris Suprun’s claim that he rushed to the attack at the Pentagon on 9/11 while serving as a firefighter in Virginia.

“He claimed to be a first responder with the Manassas Park [Virginia] Fire Department on September 11, 2001 and personally told us stories ‘I was fighting fire that day at the Pentagon.’ No, I was on a medic unit that day at the Pentagon and you make a phone call to Manassas Park and you find out that he wasn’t even employed there until October 2001,” a source told the radio station.

Manassas Park — which is 30 miles from the Pentagon — confirmed to the outlet that Suprun was hired a month after the attack on Oct. 10, 2001. That fire station, moreover, did not respond to the terror attacks that day.

“It’s no different than stolen valor for the military; dressing up and saying ‘Hey, I earned a Purple Heart’ when you weren’t even in combat.’ There’s a big difference between shopping at Old Navy and being a Navy SEAL,” the source said.

Suprun did not respond to a request for comment.
