The police officer who jumped into action during a 2016 attack at Crossroads Center in St. Cloud was honored on Thursday.
Avon police Officer Jason Falconer received a Congressional Badge of Bravery for his actions on that September 2016 day. Falconer was off duty when 22-year-old Dahir Adan stabbed and injured 10 people at the mall. Falconer shot and killed Adan to stop the attack.
"Actually, I thought (the recognition) was all said and done and over then we have this," Falconer said. "I just want to thank everybody."
Falconer is the first Minnesotan to receive the Congressional Badge of Bravery. The award honors exceptional acts of bravery in the line of duty by federal, state, and local law enforcement officers. Congress approved the award in 2008.
Sens. Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith, along with Rep. Tom Emmer, attended Wednesday's ceremony.
Thank you sir, nice shooting.
Know one know what the motive of the muslim attacker was...
Has Herr Hogg condemned this good guy with a gun yet? (”Herr” because Goebbels would be so proud)
Well, thanks to Officer Falconer, we’ll never know.
‘Cause Adan ain’t tallkin’.
What? I feel for the poor Somali lad... They forced lutefisk on him and he snapped../S
I’d snap, too!
Officer Jason Falconer, thank you.
Officer Falconer is a full-time firearm instructor and part-time police officer.
St. Cloud has turned into a complete Muslim shithole.
And, like everywhere else they have chosen to settle, they have been welcomed with open arms.
It’s like hoping that the alligator eats you last.
The MSM dropped this story like a hot rock. They are beyond transparent in their agenda and support of the Democratic Party.
Little iron crossishs for an award, if you ask me...
There are many who were involved with the absolute asinine operation in Somalia chasing Warlords and being Humanitarian Police. I personally would never think this country would import these people after seeing one of the biggest sh*tholes on the planet. Now they colonize Minnesota and Maine. The liberal dream is to make America a sh*thole to level the playing field of sh*tholes.
Where was Al Franken?
