    No mention of Ghost, though.
    I did not have any interviews with the media. A homicide inspector asked me not too. That guy in the video pulled off at least 50 yards up the road. He said he was a retired paramedic and all he did was look at her when they pulled her out of the water and said she had stab wounds and asked her what her name was.

    Good work, sir. You are the type of citizen that we police officers are proud to serve.
    Nothing man-portable is guaranteed to end a fight.

    You CAN tell the difference between a scumbag and a human in an instant,and if you can't, you need to find a new line of work.
    Spoken like someone who really doesn't have a clue. The naiveté of your post is not suprising given your past history here regarding subject matter of this nature.

    I'm not a fan of this quote because of it's gross over use but it just fits so nicely here I can't resist, so here goes....

    Stay in your lane.

    Guys like you are the reason guys like me survive some encounters. How many people just drove by and watched? Thank you again for acting.
    I had the same thoughts and I would like to add my thanks.

    That's an incredible turn of events. Not many would have done what you did. Much respect.

    Thanks for steppingup and being a hero! Takes a set of balls to throw yourself into a situation like that as a passer by.

    My dad was training a rookie when they came across a mental with a gun in a bar. The mental reached for my dads gun and they fought for while as the rookie froze up. All my dad could was hold on to his gun and trade blows with the mental until a good Samaritan in a truck stopped and as my dad put it" came running in like popeye with a big right and knocked the guy out" all the good simaritan said was I used to be a 26 and left. 26 is code for LEO.

    The guy might have saved my dads life. I am thankful for people like that. So again good work and God bless.

    Good work, GM.
    You really need to work a reserve gig for a little while, or at least go on several ride alongs. Well done Gost.
