The civilian police officer credited with stopping the shooting rampage that killed 13 people at Fort Hood is a Carolina Beach native and graduate of Hoggard High

Fort Hood police Sgt. Kimberly Munley and her partner responded within three minutes of reported gunfire Thursday afternoon, Lt. Gen. Bob Cone said Friday morning. Cone said Munley shot the gunman four times despite being shot herself.

“She happened to encounter the gunman. In an exchange of gunfire, she was wounded but managed to wound him four times,” Cone said. “It was an amazing and aggressive performance by this police officer.”

Munley, 34, is the daughter of former Carolina Beach Mayor Dennis Barbour and grew up in Carolina Beach, said her stepmother Wanda Barbour.

Barbour said she and her husband were making plans to travel to Fort Hood, where Munley remained in the hospital Friday morning in stable condition.

Who was her patrol partner and what were his/her actions. Just asking.

This woman saved a lot of lives and I pray and pray, that she survives without any long term disability.

I hope the perp. eventually escapes and tries to get to her hospital room.

This story stinks of Jessica Lynch style propaganda by our Army. It makes me sick. If I’m wrong, then all props go out to this officer, but past reporting makes one suspicious.

Let me see if I have this right. Hassan managed using just one of the two handguns he had to kill 13 and wound 30, yet he cannot get more than one round into Sgt. Mundley while she pumps four shots into him. Yet we are asked to believe Hassan acted alone? If he acted alone, why did he not use the second weapon? Did he reload the single weapon four times? It sounds as if he is not the lone shooter we as we are being told by the Federal Bureau of Incompetents.

I have heard that it’s possible some were hit by friendly fire and not by Hasan.

Shes a hero..no doubt about that..I just cant figure out why she shot him 4 times and he didn’t die? Did she use 9mm ball?

I hope Sgt. Munley is promoted to Lt. Munley.

She is one tough cop. May she have a quick recovery.

Yes, exactly, he would never make it.

And one more shot for him, IMHO.

Hassan is a genocidal executioner.Not a mere criminal killer.

This was an act of religious genocide.

She’s not in the army. She’s a policewoman from the local police department.
