According to some reports in the news, there was an off-duty border patrol agent who kept the synanogue shooting from being much worse.
BREAKING: NBC San Diego reports that an off-duty U.S. Border Patrol agent who was in the Poway synagogue opened fire on the suspect and prevented the attack from being significantly worse.

And Trump already picked up on it:
Sincerest THANK YOU to our great Border Patrol Agent who stopped the shooter at the Synagogue in Poway, California. He may have been off duty but his talents for Law Enforcement weren’t!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 27, 2019
I’ll up date with more details…
UPDATE:
From ABC News:
An off-duty border patrol agent was inside the synagogue during the shooting. The agent chased the suspect outside as he attempted to flee and fired on the suspect, striking his vehicle, Gore said.
The suspect was taken into custody after a K-9 officer saw the suspect on the freeway, after which the suspect jumped out of his car and put his hands up, San Diego Police Chief David Nisleit said during the conference.
Wow. This probably won’t be reported much, as liberals and Democrats jump to blame Trump for everything….
Here’s the original post on the shooting.
Another hero – the woman who died. Reportedly, she stepped between the gunman and the Rabbi, taking the bullet for her Rabbi. May the God of all comfort bring healing to her family and the people of her community. God bless her soul.

Democrat media reaction? (Whistles while looking up, and off into the distance)
A great guy with a GUN stopped a dirtbag with a gun
can’t get any better than that
thank YOU sir
As Ilhan Omar would say, somebody did something again.
She would say that if it were a muslim. She will probably say something like this, “It is Trump’s hatful speech…”
This is proof that there should be no gun free zones… Thank God he had a gun.
Apparently the synagogue wasn’t a “gun free zone.” A good guy with a gun stopped what could have been another massacre. Well duh!
OT:
SooperMexican Are you going to put up a live thread of the Trump rally in Wisconsin? It’s going on now, and he’s in fine form!
Seriously TRS. Can’t we just have a headline about the Hero Border Patrol agent? This is about HIM, not Trump.
Trump has praised and honored the off duty Border Patrol Agent “HIM” who stopped the shooting in the Synagogue. What better honor, or even reporting from the leftist media would you find other than Trump making his honorable service known? It’s another one of those stories about a good guy with a gun stopping the terrorists. What is wrong with Trump praising the off duty Border Patrol Agent?
The tweet by Ryan, “prior” to Trumps already establishes that the BP agent was definitely a hero, ….”good guy with a gun”.
It also established his honorable service….off duty BP agent.
I guess that I missed the part of the headline praising Tromp. I guess that I’ll have to work on my reading comprehension.
The headlines been changed, but I obviously missed that too. Not sure who said the headline praised trump anyhow.
OK
Previously, the headline read “TRUMP CONFIRMS! Off-duty border patrol agent opened fire on shooter!”, or something to that effect. It has indeed been altered.
OK
NBC actually points out he was anti-Trump. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/anti-semitic-open-letter-posted-online-under-name-chabad-synagogue-n999211 But there they go with that ‘far right’ crap again. As if this guy knows diddly about being a ‘conservative’.
Our Border Patrol agents could clean up that border mess,if they would get rid of that damn Catch and Release policy and send them right back home.
Many thanks to the Good Guy With a Gun!
Bravo!! No way can the libs spin this negatively for the border patrol officer!
Give them 24 hours. They’ll come up with something and they’ll all be repeating the talking points.
That depends on what’s in his yearbook.
“Armed man shoots teen.”
They’ll blame it on the ‘assault rifle.’
