FLASHBACK: GOOD GUY WITH A GUN STOPS BAD GUY WITH A KNIFE. And his wife was a hero, too:

Laura Creed, meanwhile, was rendering first aid not only to the mortally wounded George Heath, but Sheenah Savoy, a pregnant waitress Heath, a father of two, died helping to save.

“My initial reaction was I need a land line to call 911. Then nurse mode kicked in and I wasn’t going anywhere without this guy,” an emotional Laura Creed said at a press conference this morning with her hero husband and George Heath’s widow Rosemary Heath.

“We’ve talked about when something happens, he helps and I run. But I wasn’t going anywhere without him,” Laura Creed said, holding James’ hand.

It’s a heartwarming story, though it would have been better if the crazy guy hadn’t been let out.
