4. SOUNDBITE (English) Colorado Springs Mayor John Suthers:
"I had the opportunity before I came here today to talk to Richard Fierro, identified as one of the two heroes that subdued the suspect in this case. And in my opinion, I think the opinion of everyone involved saved a lot of lives. I won't talk about, you know, the nature of what he told me about the incident. I will just simply talk about I have never encountered a person who had engaged in such heroic actions that was so humble about it. He simply said to me, I was trying to protect my family."
