NEW YORK — Hollywood celebrities are paying tribute to slain FDNY EMT Yadira Arroyo in a viral campaign.

NY Post reported that the cast of “Blue Bloods,” Broadway’s “Wicked” and other celebrities are using their star power to keep Arroyo’s memory alive.

Actress Amy Carlson posted an Instagram photo with “Blue Bloods” co-star Donnie Wahlberg with a notecard that said: “For Yari #FDNYEMS.”

Actors from the Broadway show “Wicked” also posted a picture of six people making a heart shape with their hands with a similar sign.

Arroyo, a 44-year-old mother of five, was killed March 16 when a suspected gang member pulled her out of her ambulance and ran her over.
