From the video … you will see 26-year-old Brandon Tsay, who helps run the ballroom, confront the suspect, who’s holding an assault pistol with an prolonged journal. It apparently had a big silencer as nicely.
The 2 guys appeared to trade a number of phrases, earlier than Brandon fees on the suspect within the foyer … and a battle breaks out between them over the firearm. Brandon finally takes management of the weapon, and Tran runs out the door.
As we advised you … Brandon later spoke in regards to the second, saying one thing simply came to visit him when he noticed the firearm and sprung into motion. Apparently, he did not even know in regards to the capturing that occurred minutes earlier than he confronted Tran.
As you understand, Tran killed 11 individuals and wounded 10 others throughout a separate competition at Star Ballroom Dance Studio in Monterey Park — not removed from Tsay’s ballroom. Law enforcement surrounded his van Sunday in Torrance, the place police later confirmed he died by suicide.
This is what a hero seems like.
