Nashville Officer Rex Engelbert, who grew up in Chicago's Jefferson Park neighborhood, is being hailed as displaying 'courage in the face of evil.'
Engelbert said he had viewed his brother's bodycam video released by Nashville police, calling it "harrowing" and "tragic."His brother was one of two officers who opened fire on the shooter, bringing the attack to an end. But he was reluctant to label him as a "hero."
"So first and foremost, we're just happy he's okay," Engelbert said. "And it's a tragedy and we pray for everyone involved." Engelbert added that the police call must've have been particularly concerning for his little brother, as Rex Engelbert's fiancée is a teacher at a different Christian school in Nashville.
