April 23, 2018
The man who pulled the gun away from the Waffle House shooter in Tennessee Sunday morning is being hailed a hero. James Shaw Jr. risked his life to save others during the massacre that killed four people. After alleged gunman Travis Reinking opened fire, "His gun either got jammed or he was trying to reload, not exactly sure," Shaw told WTVF. "But I saw my opportunity in my window, so I took it and I ran through the door as fast as I can and just kind of jammed him up with the gun.”
