Wishing you a speedy recovery Officer Munley. Well done.
Wish I could have been there to back her up! God bless her.
An amazing display of courage and bravery
Kudos to Officer Munley, you showed a hell of a lot of guts.
My heroine.
I can only echo what everyone else here has said. It takes an awful lot of skill and training, in addition to generous amounts of courage, to do what she did.
May her recovery be speedy.
