Police officer who shot Fort Hood killer is doing well

A description of Civilian police officer Sgt. Kimberly Munley’s involvement as reported at the link below:

"The entire incident was very confusing and chaotic," Munley said. "There was many people outside pointing to the direction that this individual was apparently located, and as soon as I got out of my vehicle and ran up the hill was when things got pretty bad."

Once inside, Munley, who has been trained in active-response tactics, began exchanging fire with the alleged gunman, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a military psychiatrist, authorities said. They said her shots disabled Hasan and halted the attacks.

Munley suffered three gunshot wounds, in both thighs and a knuckle, and remains in good condition at Metroplex Adventist Hospital.
