UPDATE: Civilian Police Officer credited for helping stop Fort Hood shootings

  FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) - The top commander at Fort Hood is
crediting a civilian police officer for stopping the shooting
rampage that killed 13 people at the Texas post.
    Lt. Gen. Bob Cone said Friday that Fort Hood police Sgt.
Kimberly Munley and her partner responded within three minutes of
reported gunfire Thursday afternoon. Cone said Munley shot the
gunman four times despite being shot herself.
    Officials said Munley was in stable condition.
    Cone said, “It was an amazing and an aggressive performance by
this police officer.“
    Cone also said he was inspired by a woman who helped carry a
wounded victim and used her blouse as a tourniquet, then later
realized she’d been shot in the hip.
    The suspected gunman, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, is hospitalized on
a ventilator.
