‘Had he not done what he did, we could have lost more people’

EXCERPT:

CUOMO: "What do you say to the man who stepped up when he heard the gunshots?" 
TACKITT: "I say he's a hero."
CUOMO: "It's --"
TACKITT: "I think --"
CUOMO: "I don't -- I don't think there's any question about that."
TACKITT: "You know, had he not done what he did, we could have lost more people." 
CUOMO: "Because it's not known that this was over in the mind of the murder." 
TACKITT: "Very true." 
CUOMO: "Just because he exited. Who knows?" 
TACKITT: "Yes."
CUOMO: "There were other weapons in the vehicle, you believe? There --" 
TACKITT: "Yes, there are other weapons, to my understanding. I mean even though he dropped the one, I mean, you know, there's another church a couple of miles down the road. He could have stopped there. Who knows?"
