You don’t think he was trying to stop the guy entering the party behind those doors? It’s my understanding there was a number of people partying in there. He seems to have carefully blocked the perp’s entrance. Self-preservation too of course in the face of deadly odds - is that not heroic?
“You don’t think he was trying to stop the guy entering the party behind those doors?”
He would be dead if the killer’s gun had not misfired.
He is to be commended for his actions but I don’t see hero status.
But there may be more to the story. If the killer displayed the gun on entry and he then moved to stop him I would upgrade to hero.
I will look more into that.
