Some local Vegas idiot starts shooting randomly down onto a casino floor. He managed to hit a few people, but luckily none of them were hurt critically. But the coolest part is that some bystanders saw this going on -- and they tackled the psycho and pinned him down. They were off duty police officers from out of town and two military personnel. Bravo.
"These are the real heroes. They saw him shooting and tackled him and held him," police Lt. Randy Sutton said. He identified those who stepped in as three off-duty out-of-town police officers and two military personnel, but he did not know their names.
I agree totally. I would like to have been one of these guys, but in reality if I was there I'd probably be one of the people knocking over chairs running for cover. I can't say I'd pull the George Costanza move of rushing past children and elderly women, but my mindset is not one to throw myself on top of a gun-wielding nutbar.
