The Hero Ohio State Police Officer Who Saved Countless Lives

Monday morning “active shooter” alerts were sent to students’ phones throughout the entire campus of Ohio State University.

A man identified as Abdul Razak Ali Artan maliciously drove his car into groups of pedestrians on campus, then he proceeded to attack individuals with a butcher knife.

At least nine people were hospitalized, and one is said to be in critical condition, CNN reported.

In as little as a minute later, Officer Horujko arrived on scene, and engaged the suspect. Alan Horujko shot and killed Artan, saving countless lives. Officer Horujko is a hero. If it weren’t for his courage and expertise, yesterday’s events could have been much worse.
