LOS ANGELES – One of the Los Angeles County deputies who was wounded in an ambush is being credited with saving her partner’s life after a new, hard-to-watch video was released. Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva said the 31-year-old went “above and beyond the call of duty” in the moments following the shooting. Surveillance video from the shooting shows a suspect approach the parked patrol car on foot and fire into the passenger-side window. Moments after the shooting, the passenger door opens and a deputy stumbles out, hand on head, according to the Los Angeles Times. The video shows the pair take cover behind a pillar and the female deputy quickly tying a tourniquet around the other deputy’s arm in an effort to stop the bleeding.
