Off-Duty Cop Getting His Haircut Manages To Kill Gunman On Shooting Spree

The unnamed officer was getting his haircut when a gunman burst into the shop & shot the barber dead.

The officer fatally shot the gunman who had shot two other people earlier.

The Baltimore Sun reports:

“…police identified Carlos Ortega as the man who fatally shot the barber. Investigators allege Ortega was also responsible for two earlier shootings that left a 44-year-old man dead and another person critically injured.
Police are trying to determine a motive linking the three shootings. The third and final shooting occurred at The Bladi Style barber shop in the 5700 block of O’Donnell St. in Baltimore’s Medford neighborhood.
After Ortega allegedly committed the other two shootings Saturday, he entered the barbershop and fatally shot 33-year-old Rafael Jeffers, authorities said.
The off-duty Baltimore police sergeant was getting a haircut from another barber at about 3:16 p.m., Harrison said. The officer, who was armed while off duty and in plain clothes, responded quickly “and with great bravery produced his firearm” and fatally shot Ortega, Police Commissioner Michael Harrison said.
Surveillance video shows Ortega entering the barbershop and murdering a barber.
The unidentified police officer unholstered a concealed weapon and engaged him. Ortega was killed on the spot by the officer."
