CAUGHT ON TAPE: HERO COP SAVES 2-YEAR-OLD GIRL FROM DERANGED KNIFE-WIELDING MAN

[wctriumph]

In my opinion, this the way to do it if it will save an innocent life. No BS'ing around with these thugs. I hope the cop will be OK, he did the right thing.

Dramatic surveillance video from a Walmart in Midwest City, Okla., shows a heroic police officer saving a 2-year-old girl from the clutches of a deranged knife-wielding man. He did so by shooting the criminal at point-blank range, killing him. According to police, 37-year-old Sammie Wallace grabbed a toddler from her mother’s shopping cart and held a knife to her throat. Police released video and 911 audio from the June 17 incident last week.
Believing that the child had been harmed by Wallace, a heroic police officer, Capt. David Huff, shot the man at point-blank range. The child was unharmed in the horrifying ordeal.
Wallace had no prior connection to the child or her mother, police said.

Disappointed the official police department response.

1) Cop had to check to see if he had a round loaded? Doubt it, he went around the corner to conceal drawing the weapon.
2) He thought the child was being stabbed when he shot? No he didn't, he was doing what he knew he had to do to save her.

The Video clearly shows him drawing the weapon he didn;t already have it in hand ...


He very well might have ducked back at one point and double checked the gun.....might pyshced himself out wondering if it was unloaded for some reason...

You are correct. I was thinking he drew it and was holding it at his side.

Being that the officer was a Captain, he may not carry his weapon chambered that often so he may not have been positive it was ready. I'm glad he capped the fool, needs to happen more often.

I figured this or he might be one of those guys that goes home and unloads the gun for the night...
