Citizen in TX Stops Shooting Spree and Saves Cop by Making 150+ Yard Shot With pistol

It’s not every day that you hear the police give a civilian a warm “thank you” for entering a lethal shootout, but that’s exactly what happened in Early, Texas on Sunday. But before we get into the heroic civilian shooter, let’s back up a bit.

I read somewhere that he was using a 357 magnum revolver. This story doesn't say that, but that is plenty of velocity to make it that distance with a heck of a shot.

"I'm fixin' to put one in him"
If that happened more often and sooner with these sorry pieces of trash that feel the need to attack unarmed people then they may be silenced quicker or even think twice about it.
