Regardless if you think the Ft Hood Massacre was a terrorist attack, Major Nidal Malik Hasan was clearly an active killer.
Sgt Kimberly Munley and Sgt Mark Todd of the Fort Hood Police Department did an outstanding job engaging and taking Hasan down. Recent reports indicate that both officers shot Hasan. However, in my mind it’s not important which one killed him, the most important thing is that officers engaged the active killer and stopped him from killing more.
Eventually the investigation will reveal more details and lessons for us to learn.
The most detailed reports I have seen so far about this incident come from Great Britain: (hat tip to Beat and Release)

Police One as usual is doing a great job keeping officers informed and has ongoing updates of the incident.
