One of the good samaritans in the video came forward to speak out about his harrowing experience.
“I didn’t think about it. It’s just a reaction. I didn’t hesitate. It was just do it, so I went to go tackle him, and another gentleman did the same thing, and as I’m tackling him, I see his weapon either fall out of his hand or out of his sleeve.”
An Omaha hero tackled one of the suspected shooters at today's tragic mass shooting in Kansas City.
"I didn't think about it. It's just a reaction. I didn't hesitate – just do it," said Paul Contreras. #omaha | #chiefsparade pic.twitter.com/DU7RvBEPkD
