Police have released bodycam footage of the heroic officer who took down a mass shooter in Allen, Texas back on May 6.

Here's a quick reminder of those tragic events before I show you the video:

Authorities responded to the Allen Premium Outlets to investigate a shooting Saturday afternoon that killed eight victims and sent others to hospitals, with a victim as young as 5 years old.

The Allen Police Department said one of its officers responded to the outlet mall for an unrelated call, when they heard gunshots just after 3:30 p.m.

That officer "engaged the suspect and neutralized the threat," police said.

The shooting suspect has been identified as 33-year-old Mauricio Garcia.

There were nine people who died, including the shooter. Seven were pronounced dead on scene, while two others died at the hospital.

That heroic officer has chosen to remain anonymous, and I completely respect his decision.

I could say a whole lot more about how much I respect this man, but I'm not going to waste your time, cuz the video speaks for itself.

Without further ado, here's the bodycam footage for you.

Pretty gnarly stuff right there.

Went from telling kids to wear their seatbelts to running toward gunfire and eventually taking down a mass shooter.

God bless our men in blue.
