Not easy at all.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Being a police officer is a stressful job, as the work involves dealing with hostile people and difficult situations, and the threat of injury is a constant one.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve witnessed people do gods work. And we should never judge a book by its cover. Some people with muscles have a heart of gold, while others can be skinny sociopaths in suit and ties.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What happened to Sergeant Randy Harkness is unfair\u2026<\/h3>\n<p>Sergeant Randy Harkness from Dawson County, Georgia, saw a homeless man begging for money at the corner of a street.<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-2\"><\/div>\n<p>He felt compassion for the man, and decided to give him a ride to the nearest gas station and hand him some money for food. But once the homeless man entered the vehicle, he started attacking Harkness.<\/p>\n<p>He was hitting him and scratching his face like a lunatic. Sergeant Randy wasn\u2019t expecting that behavior at all, and left him in complete shock.<\/p>\n<p>During the attack, he injured his face and wasn\u2019t about to stop till something worse happened.<\/p>\n<p>All of a sudden a bystander noticed that attack and decided to act swiftly. She was legally carrying a firearm and rushed toward the sergeant.<\/p>\n<p>She fired one shot and the homeless man started running, but with the second shot she hit the suspect.<\/p>\n<p>Randy Harkness was so glad that there was someone at the scene to help him and risk their life to save him.<\/p>\n<p>The Dawson County Sheriff called the woman a hero.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cI TRULY BELIEVE THAT SHE\u2019S A HERO,\u201d SHERIFF JEFF JOHNSON TOLD FOX 5 ATLANTA. \u201cI BELIEVE THAT SHE POTENTIALLY SAVED THIS OFFICER\u2019S LIFE. WE DON\u2019T KNOW HOW FAR THE SUSPECT WOULD HAVE WENT WITH THE ASSAULT.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The woman acted and helped a police officer that was hurt, and was possibly going to end up worse. She is unlikely going to be charged with using firearm, but the incident was still under investigation.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"fluid-width-video-wrapper\"><iframe title=\"Sheriff: Woman who opened fire on suspect attacking sergeant is a 'hero'\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZwuAidR0HBI?feature=oembed\" name=\"fitvid0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unlike many people think, the truth is that it\u2019s not easy to be a police officer.
