Civilian officer shot gunman to end Fort Hood Rampage: Sgt. Kimberly Munley, a civilian police officer, is being credited for firing the shot that took down Fort Hood gunman Mag. Nidal Malik Hasan.

Sgt. Munley shot the suspect four times, reports AP. She had been directing traffic when she went in and stopped the gunman. She was wounded herself in the fight. She was just a few feet away when she took aggressive manners and shot Hasan.

Sgt. Munley remains in stable condition in an area hospital on a ventilator. She spent last night calling other officers on the scene to find out what happened. A true hero that saved many lives that day.
