Uh, could the reason be that he "wheeled on her" be that she was shooting?
In the fog of the incident, do you really think either of the Police heroes were keeping score on each other?
It sounds more to me like the New York Slimes is sexist at their core and can't admit a petite woman can be tough and act accordingly in her job.
Thanks go out to both for dropping this murderer.
The New York Times can go suck eggs.
Not only that. By showing up she distracted Hasan and forced him to fire all his remaining [in the magazine] rounds at her, thus giving the other officer a chance to make his shots. If she also wounded Hasan it's only a bonus. As they said, it was a teamwork. But she happened to be doing the most dangerous part of it, and there isn't anything wrong in recognizing that.
