”I don’t know his name but I won’t forget him,” Moore posted, alongside the images, to Facebook on Friday. Moore says he was photographing the march in downtown Dallas when the firing began.
“I ran for cover behind the closest car and became trapped,” he added in a later Facebook post. Police officers, including the one that Moore later snapped, arrived and kept him and other civilians out of harm’s way for almost two hours.
“When it was time to try to leave, he said, ‘I’m gonna stand up. You stand behind me, and we’re gonna back out,’” Moore told Fox 4 News. He’s since reportedly discovered the officer’s identity and is keen to express his gratitude in person.
“He stood in front of me basically to shield me as we exited the area. How do you not thank somebody like that?” Moore added.
At least five officers were killed and additional officers and civilians were wounded in the shooting. Dallas police have identified Micah Xavier Johnson, a 25-year-old Army veteran, as the lone gunman behind the attack.
