Attack of the Fanboy
When panic swept through a crowded In-N-Out Burger in Twin Falls, Idaho, one customer made a decision that police believe changed the outcome.
According to The Guardian, Salinas said his response felt “automatic” and “mechanical” as he confronted the gunman during Saturday’s attack.
Police later praised Salinas and an off-duty officer for helping stop the violence before more lives were lost.
