I just came across this quote from the LVMPD Assistant Sheriff:

“This guy was not some idiot with a gun. To me, he was a hero. He was trying to stop an active shooter.” - LVMPD Assistant Sheriff McMahill

There is a fundraiser setup to contribute towards his final expenses:

Did the sheriff say they had "armor piercing bullets"?

What kind of handguns and shotguns shoot armor piercing bullets?
