I do not know if getting back in her car was a viable choice for several reasons.Before "full" comment would like to know what chambering with what load.
Looks to be a Glock. The lady is obviously shooting low. Also has some kind of malfunction (maybe).
She should have released the first little soldier quite a bit sooner.
Possibly could have backed her car quickly away from the perp.
No real/direct blame here,but . . . looks like mag capacity is supposed to take over (fill the gaps) in training and protocol. 14 shots . . ?? How many hits,and where ?? How many total misses . . AND AT WHAT RANGE ???
All in all. She went home after her shift. The waste of air is hopefully dead unless it was a 9mm. And she wont get prosecuted,fired,or even admonished for her actions.
Watch closely,take note of the perps "walkin' while talkin" meathod of closing the distance. We all should be acutely aware of this MO. You see this all the time from the thugs on the street. Recognize it for what is most likely coming your way. Prepare to present your weapon,being firearm,blade,etc. Take it that if the perp sees your action,and possibly the weapon,and does not stop or retreat,he is prepared to do you great bodily harm. He is not simply coming closer because he is hard hearing. ---- SAWMAN
I saw the body cam on this.
Regardless of caliber, shot placement is king.

Bodies are like cars, cut the fuel line (blood) and it will still run for a while. Plug the intake (breathing) and it can still run for a while, but disconnect the battery (head shot) and it stops immediately.
Greg "Hyena" NicholsThis is why we advocate zippered up the body to the face to address all 3 systems. A pistol round is a pistol round, its all about volume and placement.
do you know how many rounds actually hit him?I saw the body cam on this.

While I do not know in this case, people high on adrenaline or drugs have been known to soak up a lot of pistol rounds. The brain will function until it runs out of oxygen from lack of blood flow or getting severe mechanical trauma like from a bullet striking it. This is when a second or two literally seems lvery long to the person being attacked. If this case if the knife man had charged rather than using a shuffling step he could have killed that officer.do you know how many rounds actually hit him?
She waited too long to shoot. She racked and tapped and made it happen. Cant imagine the stress she was under and looked like she performed though several shots missed she didn't give up. Could have gone way different.
She ejected one round and if 14 were fired, than she fired 15 rounds. I seeThe number of shots fired does not indicate that the pistol used IS a 9mm. Several other Glocks have that capacity+.
My guess would be a 23. --- SAWMAN
I stand corrected in that it could be a 40.Glock 22 Mag. Capacity
Standard: 15
