Hero cop made frantic call for backup before taking down Texas mall gunman

The police officer who took down the Allen, Texas mall gunman made a panicked call for backup — pleading for “everybody” — moments before he encountered the suspect and shot him dead.
As he rushed to the H&M store at the Allen Premium Outlets Saturday, the hero cop tried his best to relay the chaos outside the mall where a man in his 30s opened fire, killing eight people and injuring seven others, including children, audio of the call to the Allen Police Department reveals.
With dozens of gunshots ringing out, the officer urged his fellow cops to get to the scene as fast as they could to help him take down the gunman, who was armed with an AR-15-style rifle.
“I’ve got people running. There’s still shooting,” the officer said during the call. “I need everybody I got.”
About two minutes after urging for backup to arrive, the officer was successfully able to take down the shooter, telling his colleagues: “I got him down,” according to the audio obtained by the Daily Mail.
The officer, who has not been publicly identified, was initially at the mall for an unrelated call, Allen Police Chief Brian Harvey told reporters.
“He heard gunshots, went to the gunshots, engaged the suspect, and neutralized the suspect,” Harvey said.

Just curious, did the Cop get him with his sidearm, or an AR?
Sounds like, he was on scene and went with what he had. (A sidearm.)
I had read about this yesterday at lunch, when it had just happened. They did not know more than it was "an Active shooter, at the Mall." Sorry to hear, so many were killed.
I was hoping that would not be the case.
Well done, to the LEO.

Ken I was wondering the same thing. Did that cop take on an AR with a pistol? Sounds like he did.

And the parents, named Garcia, needed a translator brought in when interviewed by the police. Bob

Looks like a quick end .they may not know why now as answering questions is a little late
but the LEO saved taxpayers a truck load of cash
Prayers to all the family's and friends of those who in the wrong place
That giveaway for a sharp stick in the eye comes to mind

It is impossible to forecast where or when these events happen, so people have to be aware of what's going on, especially around densely populated areas such as malls. It stinks but that is the situation now.
