FIRST ON FOX: Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., is introducing a House resolution honoring the Indiana mall hero who took down an active shooter with a legal firearm in 15 seconds.
Elisjsha Dicken saved the lives of mall-goers in just 15 seconds when he neutralized a man opening fire in Greenwood, Indiana. Police said Dicken hit the attacker, who later died of his wounds, with eight out of ten shots.
Dicken’s heroic act made national media attention, and now GOP lawmakers in Congress want to recognize the life-saving "Good Samaritan."
On Thursday, Rep. Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., introduced a resolution honoring Dicken for his actions, with the congresswoman telling Fox News Digital that Dicken is an "American hero."
"Elisjsha Dicken is an American hero, worthy of recognition and honor," Boebert told Fox News Digital. "Eli’s act of bravery saved countless lives and inspired millions more."
