Good guy shows up.

Bad guy dies.

Good guy stopped the shooting.

Who cares about the fine details of who shot who. Good guy with a gun stopped a bad guy with a gun. That is all you need to know.

Did he hit the Glock before or after the active murderer kill himself? If the officer hit the Glock before the active shooter shot himself, I wonder where he hit the Glock?

My understanding is that a lot of shooters in gunfights get shot in the hands, compared to the size of the hands - because that is what many people look at during a gunfight.

Not likely. Hands are very small, fast moving targets.

Trained shooters aim for center of mass.

The actual hitting of a gun would be an extremely rare fluke.

Their relative motion is essentially zero if they’re aiming at you.

They also are often within those bounds of “center mass” - though at the higher end if properly aiming.
